On the Mayflower they came

On the Mayflower they came
Looking for freedom of religion
Pilgrims from England arrived
Finding a better nation.

On the Mayflower they came
Not ready for terrible winters
Some died, some lived
Some missing their dears.

On the Mayflower they came
Befriending the Indians
Picking the harvests
Hunting with muskets.

On the Mayflower they came
Sitting at the table
Filled with turkey, corn and berries
Ready for dinner.

On the Mayflower they came
Giving thanks and sharing
A day full of meaning
They made Thanksgiving.
