The American Eagle and the Thanksgiving Turkey:
May one give us peace in all our states,
And the other a piece for all our plates!
President Obama pardoning the Turkeys
O Thou who has given us so much, mercifully grant us one thing more — a grateful heart.
May our pleasures be boundless while we have time to enjoy them.
Here’s to the turkey we’re about to eat, and the turkeys we’re eating with!
Here’s to the blessings of the year,
Here’s to the friends we hold so dear,
To Peace on Earth, both far and near.
For turkey braised, The Lord be praised.
