For the ploughing, sowing, reaping, silent growth while we are sleeping, future needs in earth's safe-keeping, thanks be to God. 2 In the just reward of labour, God's will is done. In the help we give our neighbour, God's will is done. In our worldwide task of caring for the hungry and despairing, in the harvests we are sharing, God's will is done. 3 For the harvests of the Spirit, thanks be to God. For the good we all inherit, thanks be to God. For the wonders that astound us, for the truths that still confound us, most of all that love has found us, thanks be to God.

Glorious in his faithfulness. 3 Father-like he tends and spares us; Well our feeble frame he knows; In his hands he gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Alleluia! Alleluia! Widely yet his mercy flows. 4 Frail as summer's flow'r we flourish, Blows the wind and it is gone; But while mortals rise and perish, God endures unchanging on; Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise the high eternal one! 5 Angels, help us to adore him; You behold him face to face; Sun and moon, bow down before him, Dwellers all in time ad space: Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: LAUDA ANIMA
