"Happy Thanksgiving 2013"

We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known,
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing
Sing praises to His name; he forgets not His own,
 
Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine
So from the beginning the fight we were winning
Thou Lord were at our side, all glory be Thine...

     It's on this occasion... I recall hearing this hymn sung as a child growing up in The First Baptist Church....and I will never forget all the blessing of growing up in a loving and caring family and neighborhood then...and moving forward all these many years later...I can still say I'm blessed and so very thankful to God for all He has been to me? How about you?
 
     Happy Thanksgiving Day...
