Litany of Thanksgiving

Let us give thanks to God our Father
for all his gifts so freely bestowed upon us.

For the beauty and wonder of your creation,
in earth and sky and sea.
We thank you, Lord.

For all that is gracious in the lives of men and women,
revealing the image of Christ,
We thank you, Lord.

For our daily food and drink,
our homes and families, and our friends,
We thank you, Lord.

For minds to think, and hearts to love,
and hands to serve,
We thank you, Lord.

For health and strength to work,
and leisure to rest and play,
We thank you, Lord.

For the brave and courageous,
who are patient in suffering and faithful in adversity,
We thank you, Lord.

For all valiant seekers after truth, liberty, and justice,
We thank you, Lord.

For the communion of saints,
in all times and places,
We thank you, Lord.

Above all, we give you thanks
for the great mercies and promises
given to us in Christ Jesus our Lord;

To him be praise and glory, with you, O Father,
and the Holy Spirit, now and for ever. Amen.
