Bread of Angels, Alleluia! not as orphans His the sceptre, his the throne; Here on earth our food, our stay! Are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! his the triumph, Alleluia! here the sinful Alleluia! he is near us; His the victory alone. Flee to you from day to day: Faith believes nor questions Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion Intercessor, friend of sinners, how: Thunder like a mighty flood. Earth's Redeemer, plead for me, Though the cloud from sight Jesus out of every nation Where the songs of all the sinless received him, Has redeemed us by his blood. Sweep across the crystal sea8 When the forty days were over, Shall our hearts forget his promise, "I am with you evermore"? Closing: Crown Him with Many Crowns! Crown Him with many crowns, The lamb upon the throne: Crown Him with many crowns Crown Him the Hark! How the heav'nly anthem drowns Lord of Heav'n: One with the Father known. All Music but its own! One with the Spirit through Him giv'n Awake, my soul, and sing From yonder glorious throne. Of Him who died for thee, To Thee be endless praise. And hail him as thy matchless King For Thou hast died for me; Through all eternity. Be Thou, O Lord, through endless days Crown Him with many crowns Adored and magnified Adored and magnified Crown Him with many crowns His glories now we sing, Who died and rose on high, Who died eternal life to bring And, lives that death may die.

ANDREW THE APOSTLE THOUGHTS BY REV KEV The first idea is that the celebration here in America dates back nearly 400 years, but some West Texans claim that a Spanish explorer Juan de Onate celebrated the first Thanksgiving on April 30, 1598 after surviving a trip across a desert. He ordered a day of giving Thanks –including Mass. The pilgrim governor organized the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621. And George Washington on his way to Valley Forge ordered his men to stop in a wintery/snow covered plain to give thanks. Later in his presidency George Washing- ton ordered the first National Thanksgiving in 1789 and then again in 1795. It was president Lincoln who established Thanksgiving on the last Thursday in November and in 1941 Congress officially set the date for Thanksgiving as the 4th Thursday in November. The strangest thing about all of this is that as Catholic Christians, we have been celebrating Thanksgiving from the time of the Last Supper and on a weekly basis, if not daily, for most of you present here today, since the Mass, or more properly the Eucharist (the Greek work for Thanksgiving) is an important part of our spiritual lives, and if that was not enough, the children of God have been giving Thanks from the very beginning.
