Come, You Thankful People, Come

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: Voices United #516 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Rural Life Lyrics: 1 Come, you thankful people, come, raise the song of harvest-home! All is safely gathered in, safe before the storms begin; God, our maker, does provide for our needs to be supplied: come to God's own temple, come, raise the song of harvest-home! 2 All the world is God's own field, harvests for God's praise to yield; wheat and weeds together sown, here for joy or sorrow grown; first the blade, and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear: Harvest-giver, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be. 3 For our God, one day, shall come, and shall take this harvest home, from the field shall in that day all offences purge away; giving angels charge at last in the fire the weeds to cast, but the fruitful ears to store in the garner evermore. 4 Even so, God, quickly come to your final harvest-home! Gather all your people in, free from sorrow, free from sin; there for ever purified, in your presence to abide: come, with all your angels, come, raise the glorious harvest-home.

Sing to the Lord of Harvest

Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Hymnal: Voices United #519 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Rural Life Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord of harvest, sing songs of love and praise, with joyful hearts and voices your hallelujahs raise; by whom the rolling seasons in fruitful order move; sing to the Lord of harvest a joyous song of love. 2 God makes the clouds drop fatness, the deserts bloom and spring, the hills leap up in gladness, the valleys laugh and sing. God fills them all with fullness, all things with large increase; and crowns the year with goodness, with plenty and with peace. 3 Bring to this sacred altar all things God's goodness gave, the golden sheaves of harvest, the souls Christ died to save: your hearts lay down before him when at his feet you fall, and with your lives adore him who gave his life for all.

All Beautiful the March of Days

Author: Frances Whitmarsh Wile Hymnal: Voices United #530 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Rural Life Lyrics: 1 All beautiful the march of days, as seasons come and go; the hand that shaped the rose hath wrought the crystal of the snow, has sent the silvery frost of heaven, the flowing waters sealed, and laid a silent loveliness on hill and wood and field. 2 O’er white expanses sparkling pure the radiant morns unfold; the solemn splendours of the night burn brighter through the cold; life mounts in every throbbing vein, love deepens round the hearth, and clearer sounds the angel hymn, good will to all on earth. 3 O God, from whose unfathomed law the year in beauty flows, yourself the vision passing by in crystal and in rose, day unto day declare thro' speech, and night to night proclaim, in ever-changing words of light the wonder of your name.
