Thanksgiving: The Perfect Time to Say “Thank You"

Give thanks, all ye people, give thanks to the Lord,
Alleluias of freedom with joyful accord:
Let the East and the West, North and South roll along,
Sea, mountain and prairie, one thanksgiving song.

- from “The President’s Hymn” written by William Augustus Muhlenburg for President Abraham Lincoln, 1863


The fourth Thursday of November is coming soon. That day we celebrate  one of the major holidays of the year, Thanksgiving Day.
