Thanksgiving is Coming

Come Ye Thankful People Come 
(Henry Alford & George J. Elvey)

Come, ye thankful people, come,
raise the song of harvest 
home;
all is safely gathered in,
ere the winter storms begin.

God our Maker doth provide
for our wants to be supplied;
come to God’s own temple, come,
raise the song of harvest home.

I can imagine the Pilgrims singing this song. After a long, laborious summer, they worked together to bring in the harvest and tuck it away for the winter. They thanked the Lord for His provisions and sang praises to Him. 

This is Thanksgiving week. How has God provided for you and your family? What songs will you raise to Him?
