Note from the Arranger

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. For my entire life, my family has gathered together around the table and shared what we’re thankful for that year. It’s usually a time of worship, because no matter what difficulty we’ve faced, we can see God’s hand at work.

I pray that as you work through the hymns in this collection, your heart is led to worship God and reflect on His beautiful work in your life.
