Heap High the Farmer's Wintry Hoard

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Hymnal: Worship in Song #43 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Quaker author First Line: Heap high the farmer's wintry hoard! Lyrics: 1 Heap high the farmer's wintry hoard! Heap high the golden corn! No richer gift has autumn poured from out her lavish horn! Through vales of grass and meads of flowers our plows their furrows made, While on the hills the sun and showers of changeful April played. 2 We dropped the seed over hill and plain beneath the sun of May, And frightened from our sprouting grain the robber crows away. All through the long, bright days of June its leaves grew green and fair, And waved in hot midsummer's noon its soft and yellow hair. 3 And now with autumn's moonlit eyes, It's harvest-time has come, We pluck away the frosted leaves, and bear the treasure home. Oh let the good old crop adorn the hills our fathers (forbears) trod; Still let us, for his (this) golden corn, send up our thanks to God! Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

When perils overtake us, a refuge thou wilt make us; That on the greater journey, Lord, we may begin. 3 With voices united our praises we offer, And gladly our song of thanksgiving we raise; Let thy benediction confirm our conviction That love and light are thine; to thee ever be praise.

This Still Room

And so I find it well to come for deeper rest to this still room, 2 For here the habit of the soul Feels less the outer world's control; The strength of mutual purpose pleads more earnestly our common needs; 3 And from the silence multiplied By these still forms on either side, The world that time and sense have known falls off and leaves us God alone. Scripture: Matthew 18:20 Tune Title: THE KING'S MAJESTY

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Hymnal: Worship in Song #139 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Topics: Quaker author Lyrics: 1 *Dear Lord and Father of mankind, Forgive our foolish ways; Reclothe us in our rightful mind, In purer lives thy service find, In deeper revrence, praise. 2 In simple trust like theirs who heard, Beside the Syrian sea, The gracious calling of the Lord, Let us, like them, without a word Rise up and follow thee. 3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee! O calm of hills above, Where Jesus knelt to share with thee The silence of eternity Interpreted by love. 4 Drop thy still dews of quietness, Till all our strivings cease: Take from our souls the strain and stress, And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of thy peace. 5 Breathe through the heats of our desire Thy coolness and thy balm; Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still, small voice of calm. *Creator of all humankind Tune Title: REST
