Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday in the United States, and Thanksgiving 2023 occurs on Thursday, November 23. In 1621, Puritans who fled religious persecution from England and the Native American Wampanoag people shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations.
For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual puritans and states. It wasn't until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November.

美国的感恩节带有基督教色彩，那就入乡随俗，分享一首赞美诗。
“感谢神赐温暖春天，感谢神凄凉秋景。
感谢神赐路旁玫瑰，感谢神玫瑰有刺。”
凡事感恩，常常喜乐 ~ ~
多年前第一次在基督徒朋友家里听到这首歌，就被歌词中的乐观和喜乐所打动。
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich (I am rich)
We give thanks
Give thanks
We give thanks to You
【太常引】感恩节
先民渡过大西洋，一路御风狂。落泊入蛮荒。遇冬冷，前途渺茫。
新天土著，热情相助，授予稼禾方。终万事呈祥。每回首、余恩更长。
