Come On In

Come on in the doors are open
Don't stay out in the cold
The turkeys done, the dressings hot
All are welcome, young and old
Tell the homeless to come in
Bring that beggar in the street
They are poor and all alone
They are hungry and need to eat

The pie's coming out of the oven
The potatoes fluffy and white
The gravy is hot and ready
Everything is cooked just right
You have an open invitation
Feel free to pull up a chair
It doesn't matter how you look
I don't care what you wear

The needy, the hurting, the lonely
Are all wecome to my call
That sad old man in the alley
Who has no family at all
Lets all hold hands and bow our heads
Bless this food, we pray
And for all my friends at my table
On this Thanksgiving Day

(C) Linda Hill 2008

Happy Thanksgiving to all my AD family!  I love you all!   Let's not forget the needy this season,  by the grace of God it could be you....

Great reminder, Linda; and let's not just think about the children: there are PLENTY of needy adults this season who could use a helping hand! Believe me, I know: I'm one of THEM.

Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow; may it be full of God's bounty!

It surely could, especially these days, and you remind us so well, as you always do, Linda, that we all share this planet we call home.

And wishing a most Joyous Thanksgiving and Holiday Season to you and yours.

What a loving gift, your words - blessed to have just read them, had my fill of what the real reason for the holiday is: giving, and being thankFULL. Well done.
