O Heavenly Father:
We thank Thee for food
and remember the hungry.
We thank Thee for health
and remember the sick.
We thank Thee for friends
and remember the friendless.
We thank Thee for freedom
and remember the enslaved.
May these rembrances
stir us to service.
That Thy gifts to us may be used
for others. Amen
By the late Abigail Van Buren (Dear Abby).
