In the grace of dawn, a prayer unfurls,
For Christians, gratitude in everyday swirls.
Each sunrise whispers, a hymn to say,
In their hearts, it's Thanksgiving Day.

Blessings counted like grains of sand,
Faith woven strong, a divine strand.
Every moment, a gift to hold,
A symphony of thanks, beautifully bold.

Through trials and triumphs, they find,
Reasons to praise, in heart and mind.
For in their journey, a sacred art,
Grateful souls, from the very start.

Not just a season, but a lifelong song,
In every echo, thanksgiving strong.
For Christian hearts, a constant ray,
Every day, their Thanksgiving Day.

The Holy City In Charleston, the "Holy City" stands so proud,
Where faith and tolerance blend in the crowd.
With history rich in religious grace,
Over 400 steeples in this sacred place.

A tapestry of beliefs, a vibrant array,
In Charleston, all religions find their way.
From churches old to temples bright and new,
Diverse in faith, yet unity in view.

The skyline's silhouette adorned with care,
A testament to the many prayers we share.
In this melting pot of beliefs, we see,
Charleston's spirit in harmony.

In autumn's embrace, the world transforms,
With hues of gold and red, nature performs.
A symphony of colors, a painter's delight,
In fall's gentle embrace, everything feels right.

Leaves flutter down like confetti from the trees,
Carried by the breeze, dancing with ease.
The air is filled with fragrances so sweet,
Crisp apples, pumpkin spice, a cozy retreat.

As daylight wanes, the firelight glows,
In the hearth's warm embrace, stories compose.
Fall's magic whispers in every cool night,
A season of wonder, a pure delight.

So let's savor this moment, let's take it all in,
For fall is a treasure, where memories begin.
With colors and aromas that fill the air,
In this wonderful season, we find joy everywhere.

There is no earthly gift worthy of The Maker of The Universe
He is waiting for the Gift of Love He sent from His Son Above

Everything will slowly decay and fade away 
Only Love will last forever in it I must stay

Happy Father's Day God I have nothing more to say 
Only my actions will show You my feelimgs for you today

Have you seen Jesus? He's not in the tomb. 
Look, He might be standing in the room.

So many don't look till they need His Help. 
He doesn't mind. He will always respond to your call for Help. 

If I had only known earlier in life
I could have avoided much less strife. 

Whether now or whether then
He is patiently waiting for all men.

Check the signs of the trail you're on
Someone before you may have turned them around 
You might find yourself going the long way around

Always take a map with you no matter where you go
With this information the correct direction you will always know

The same can be applied to your spiritual life
God left you a map in the scriptures that will bring less strife

Do not follow the false signs of man
It's only through the scriptures you find you can

Thank you, God, for knowing what's in my future ahead 
Following your scripture, I will have peace on my deathbed
