Just a short song about Thanksgiving. I may be wrong, but I don’t think I have ever heard a song about the Thanksgiving holiday. It is one of my favorite holidays.

Story behind the song
A few years ago my wife and I were up visiting my brother Richard for Thanksgiving. It was rainy and cold that night at the Weasku Inn in Grants Pass, Oregon. We all decided to write a Thanksgiving Song, so this is what we came up with..
Lyrics
Thanksgiving Song
The leaves are falling
The rain is coming down
The fire is burning
Love is all around
In our hearts we are all together
Feeling lonely but we are not alone
Giving thanks for everything we have
You give us so much more
Than we could ever ask
We’re at the table
Sharing our thankful fors
Counting all our blessings
Poured out from the Lord
Giving thanks for everything we have
You give us so much more
Than we could ever ask
Words and music by Richard, Susanne and John Matteson 2019
