Come, Ye Thankful People, Come
Author: Henry Alfrod Hymnal: Worship in Song #42 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Thankfulness Lyrics: 1 Come ye thankful people, come,
Raise the song of harvest home;
All is safely gathered in,
Ere the winter storms begin;
God, our Maker, doth provide
For our wants to be supplied;
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home.
2 All the blessings of the field,
All the stores the gardens yield;
All the fruits in full supply,
Ripened 'neath the summer sky;
All that spring with bounteous hand
Scatters o'er the smiling land;
All that liberal autumn pours
From her rich o'erflowing stores.
3 These, to thee, our God, we owe,
Source whence all our blessings flow;
And for these our souls shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.
Come, then, thankful people, come,
Raise the song of harvest home;
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home. Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR

now may Israel truly say;
through great trials God has brought us
to the dawn of this new day.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
2 When God's people walked the desert,
hungry, thirsty, faint of heart,
God prepared for them a city,
gave them hope and took their part.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
3 Those who steer their ships through trouble,
ride the storm and plumb the deep,
reach at length their promised haven,
bless that grace which brings them sleep.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
4 Oh give thanks for all God's mercies:
fields are watered, crops are sown,
sheep and cattle fill the pastures,
babes in arms have safely grown.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
