[CAPTAINZING2000]

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 know 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
