Nervous Hostesss
T urkey roasting in the oven.
H ope our guests will not be late.
A ppetite is activating,
N ow it's very hard to wait.
K ith and kin are soon arriving,
S ome are driving, some by air.
G ot to get the gravy started,
I n a short time they'll be here.
V ast amount of mashed potatoes
I hope I have remembered all,
N ot forgetting sliced tomatoes.
G reeting guests now in the hall.
D ear Lord, we thank you for this food
A nd all blessings sent our way.
Y es Lord, we thank you for this day.
