Father in Heaven, Creator of all and source of all goodness and love, please look kindly upon us and receive our heartfelt gratitude in this time of giving thanks.
O God. When I have food, Help me to remember the hungry;
When I have work, help me to remember the jobless;
When I have a home, help me to remember those who have no home at all;
When I am without pain, help me to remember those who suffer, and remembering,
help me to destroy my complacency; bestir my compassion,
and be concerned enough to help; By word and deed,
those who cry out for what we take for granted.
Amen.
