Blessing for Thanksgiving Day

Blessing for Thanksgiving Day

God most provident, we join all creation in raising to you a hymn of thanksgiving, through Jesus Christ, your Son. For generation upon generation peoples of this land have sung of your bounty; we too offer you praise for the rich harvest we have received at your hands.                 

Bless us and this food which we share with grateful hearts. Continue to make our land fruitful and let our love for you be seen in our pursuit of peace and justice and in generous response to those in need.  Praise and glory to you, Lord God, now and forever.  Amen.
