I think of Thanksgiving Day as basically a Protestant holiday, what with its associations to legends of the Plymouth Pilgrims, who came to this country because the Church of England was too close to Catholicism for them to live with it. But the most classic hymn for this day, "Come Ye Thankful People, Come", came from England and not New England, and is a happy combination of elements: it has the confident air of the righteous congregation praising God, along with seasonally appropriate references to harvest, and an apocalyptic longing for the return of the Lord that fits perfectly with the Catholic lectionary in the last weeks of the church year.
