Thanksgiving is the time for families to gather
To give thanks for those they cherish and love
Parents and children gather together
All precious gifts from our loving God above

We gather together as a reminder of all
The love we received throughout our life
Beginning at birth with our parent's entrust 
Down to the joining of love with husband or wife

And we carry on with this great order of life
Bringing forth new children to continue God's flow
And soon we evolve and clearly recognize
As our children carry on with grandchildren to know

The total of this all continues to spell love
As the grand accumulation of God's greatest gift
With bonding and love to take it's rightful place
To become the thanksgiving we raise and uplift

"A Mother And Father's Prayer"
Collin Raye & Melissa Manchester

I know You're listening, as I lay me down to sleep
It's not for me I ask, but my children's souls to keep
It seems the world is going crazy
And though I need to do my share
Could You please take them under wing
Watch over them especially
Keeping them safe from everything
This is a Mother's Prayer

I know You're listening in the silence of this night
The news is blistering but I hold on to Your light
And though there's darkness all around us
By my faith I know You're there
Give me the strength to lead the way
Send me the words I need to say
Use me to guide them day by day
This is a Father's Prayer

I know I can't do this by myself 
I thank You for your help

I know You're listening, so I know I'm not alone
I feel You're here with me, as we all face the unknown
Could You return us to your Garden
Where no one's hurt and no one's scared
Keep us from pride and bitterness
Keep us so close we won't forget
Teach us to love as You love
This is a Mother's Prayer
This is a Father's Prayer
Teach us to love as You love

This is a Mother's, Father's Prayer
