THE GATHERING
We gathered together with the bounty of the Lord's blessing
Sitting round a table with turkey and dressing
A thought did occur to me
The greatest gift is our family
To be sitting at a table of plenty.
I'm reminded of those without any
I now realize, I know this to be true
The times of our lives our seldom and few
So we forgive all our feuds from the past
We grow older and know, our days go to fast
We think of our loved ones far away,
wishing they were home for the holiday
Perhaps,we ourselves wish we were with our family and friends
To be longing for home , the loneliness descends
I now know, no matter how far I should roam
My heart will forever be longing for home
