with heart and hands and voices,
who wondrous things hath done,
in whom this world rejoices;
who from our mother's arms
hath blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.
2 O may this bounteous God
through all our life be near us,
with ever joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us,
and nourish us with grace,
and guide us when perplexed,
and free us from all ills
in this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
eternal now be given,
to Spirit and to Word,
who reign in highest heaven:
our ever faithful God,
whom earth and heaven adore;
for thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore. Topics: Thanksgiving; Family Used With Tune: NUN DANKET ALLE GOTT
Now Thank We All Our God
Nature's King
Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 36 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116:12 First Line: Oh, give thanks to Him who made Lyrics: 1 Oh, give thanks to him who made
Morning light and evening shade;
Source and giver of all good,
Nightly sleep and daily food;
Quickener of our wearied powers;
Guard of our unconscious hours.
2 Oh, give thanks to nature's King,
Who made every breathing thing:
His, our warm and sentient frame,
His, the mind's immortal flame.
Oh, how close the ties that bind
Spirits to the Eternal Mind!
3 Oh, give thanks with heart and lip,
For we are his workmanship;
And all creatures are his care:
Not a bird that cleaves the air
Falls unnoticed; but who can
Speak the Father's love to man?
4 Oh, give thanks to him who came
In a mortal, suffering frame--
Temple of the Deity--
Came, for rebel man to die;
In the path himself hath trod,
Leading back his saints to God. Topics: God: The Father Used With Tune: DIX

Author: George R. Woodward; Paul Gerhardt (1607-1676) Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116:7 Lyrics: 1 Now woods and wolds are sleeping,
And darkness fast is creeping
O'er byre, hearth, and hall;
But thou, my soul, ere slumber,
For blessings passing number
Exalt the Giver of them all.
2 Ye also, O my dearest,
My friends and kindred nearest,
God rest you safe from harm!
His angel hosts attend ye,
Their golden shields defend ye,
From nightly danger and alarm.
Amen. Topics: Benediction; Benevolence; Brotherhood; Evening; Fellowship; God Protection; Gratitude; Worship Evening Used With Tune: INNSBRUCK
