It's easy to forget focusing on the root of the name of our annual turkey feasting holiday each November: thanks. But of course it is best celebrated with giving thanks, and the Psalms of the Bible are full of words of praise and thanksgiving to help us express what we feel this time of year. So here we give you 19 powerful Thanksgiving Psalms to read and share this season.
These psalms of thanksgiving and other Bible verses about being thankful act as good reminders of why and how to express gratitude in a powerful way. Perhaps the best known for its language of praise, Psalm 100 calls readers to “Shout with joy to the Lord, all the Lord!” and “Give thanks to Him and praise His name alone,” and David speaks of his continual praise in Psalm 34: “I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises.” He echoes that high praise in Psalm 7 too: “Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name.”
If you are looking for more writings to cultivate thanksgiving this season, you can check out these Bible verses about Thanksgiving and gratitude quotes too. But for now here are all those 19 Thanksgiving Psalms for you to reflect on what this season means to you and your loved ones this year.
