Author: Henry Alford; Anna Barbauld Hymnal: CH1995 #718 (1995) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D 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, does 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 its rich o'erflowing stores,
3 These to thee, my God, we owe,
source whence all our blessings flow;
and for these my soul shall raise
grateful vows and solemn praise.
Come, ye thankful people, come,
raise the song of harvest home;
come to God's own temple, come,
raise the song of harvest home. Topics: Times and Seasons Thanksgiving; God's World Times and Seasons: Thanksgiving; Descants; Gratitude; Harvest; Thanksgiving Day Scripture: Matthew 13:24-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR
