Give Thanks, My Soul, For Harvest
Author: William Watkins Reid, Sr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving Day First Line: Give thanks, my soul for harvest Lyrics: 1 Give thanks, my soul, for harvest,
for store of fruit and grain;
but know the owner gives so
that we may share again.
Where people suffer hunger,
or little children cry,
with gifts from God’s rich bounty
may thankfulness reply.
2 Give thanks, my soul, for riches
of woodland, mine, and hill;
but know that gold and timber
are the Creator's still.
God lends to us, as stewards,
abundance we might share,
and thus provide earth's children
the blessing of God's care.
3 Give thanks, my soul, for labours,
that strength and days employ;
but know the Maker's purpose
brings toil as well as joy.
Show forth, O God, your purpose;
direct our will and hand
to share your love and bounty
with all in every land. Used With Tune: MUNICH

We plow the field and scatter
Author: Matthias Claudius, 1740-1815; Jane Montgomery Campbell, 1817-1878 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Appears in 462 hymnals Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1. We plow the fields, and scatter
the good seed on the land,
but it is fed and watered
by God's almighty hand;
he sends the snow in winter,
the warmth to swell the grain,
the breezes and the sunshine,
and soft refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us
are sent from heaven above;
then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord
for all his love.
2. He only is the Maker
of all things near and far;
he paints the wayside flower,
he lights the evening star;
the wind and waves obey him,
by him the birds are fed;
much more to us, his children,
he gives our daily bread. [Refrain]
3. We thank thee, then, O Father,
for all things bright and good,
the seedtime and the harvest,
our life, our health, our food:
the gifts we have to offer
are what thy love imparts,
but chiefly thou desirest
our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain]

Sing to the Lord of harvest
Author: J. S. B. Monsell Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Various Occasions Thanksgiving Day; Various Occassions Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord of harvest,
Sing songs of love and praise;
With joyful hearts and voices
Your Hallelujahs raise:
By Him the rolling seasons
In fruitful order move.
Sing to the Lord of harvest
A song of happy love.
2 By Him the clouds drop fatness,
The deserts bloom and spring;
The hills leap up in gladness,
The valleys laugh and sing.
He filleth with His fullness
All things with large increase,
He crowns the year with goodness,
With plenty and with peace.
3 Bring to His sacred altar
The gifts His goodness gave,
The golden sheaves of harvest,
The souls He died to save:
Your hearts lay down before Him,
When at His feet we fall,
And with your lives adore Him,
Who gave His life for all.
4 To God, the gracious Father
Who made us "very good:"
To Christ, who, when we wandered,
Restored us with His blood:
And to the Holy Spirit,
Who doth upon us pour
His blessèd dews and sunshine,
Be praise forevermore. Used With Tune: [Sing to the Lord of harvest]

Call Jehovah Your Salvation
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 217 hymnals Topics: Civil Year Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Call Jehovah your salvation,
Rest beneath th' Almighty's shade,
In his secret habitation
Dwell, nor ever be dismayed:
There no tumult can alarm you,
You shall dread no hidden snare;
Guile nor violence can harm you,
In eternal safeguard there.
2 From the sword at noonday wasting,
From the noisome pestilence,
In the depth of midnight blasting,
God shall be your sure defense:
He shall charge his angel legions
Watch and ward o'er thee to keep;
Though you walk through hostile regions,
Though in desert wilds you sleep.
3 Since, with pure and firm affection,
You on God hast set your love,
With the wings of his protection
He will shield you from above:
You shall call on him in trouble,
He will hearken, he will save;
Here for grief reward you double,
Crown with life beyond the grave.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 91 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Till suns shall rise and set no more.
