Sing to the Lord of Harvest
Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Hymnal: Voices United #519 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord of harvest,
sing songs of love and praise,
with joyful hearts and voices
your hallelujahs raise;
by whom the rolling seasons
in fruitful order move;
sing to the Lord of harvest
a joyous song of love.
2 God makes the clouds drop fatness,
the deserts bloom and spring,
the hills leap up in gladness,
the valleys laugh and sing.
God fills them all with fullness,
all things with large increase;
and crowns the year with goodness,
with plenty and with peace.
3 Bring to this sacred altar
all things God's goodness gave,
the golden sheaves of harvest,
the souls Christ died to save:
your hearts lay down before him
when at his feet you fall,
and with your lives adore him
who gave his life for all. Languages: English Tune Title: WIE LIEBLICH IST DER MAIEN

Great God, We Sing That Mighty Hand
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #520 (1957) Topics: Special Subjects and Occasions Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Great God, we sing that mighty hand
By which supported still we stand;
The opening year Thy mercy shows;
That mercy crowns it till it close.
2 By day, by night, at home, abroad,
Still are we guarded by our God,
By His incessant bounty fed,
By His unerring counsel led.
3 With grateful hearts the past we own;
The future, all to us unknown,
We to Thy guardian care commit,
And peaceful leave before Thy feet.
4 In scenes exalted or depressed,
Thou art our joy, and Thou our rest;
Thy goodness all our hopes shall raise,
Adored thro' all our changing days.
Amen.

Author: Mathias Claudius; Jane Montgomery Campbell Hymnal: Voices United #520 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving First Line: We plough the field and scatter Lyrics: 1 We plough the fields and scatter
the good seed on the land,
but it is fed and watered
by your almighty hand;
you send 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;
we thank you, God, O holy God,
for all your love.
2 You only are the maker
of all things near and far;
you paint the wayside flower,
you light the evening star;
the wind and waves obey you,
by you the birds are fed;
much more to us, your children,
you give us daily bread. [Refrain]
3 We thank you then, O Maker,
for all things bright and good,
the seed-time and the harvest,
our life, our health, our food;
accept the gifts we offer
for all your love imparts,
and, what from us you long for,
our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: WIR PFLÜGEN

O God, Beneath Thy Guiding Hand
Author: Leonard Bacon, 1802-1881 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #521 (1957) Topics: Special Subjects and Occasions Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 O God, beneath Thy guiding hand
Our exiled fathers crossed the sea;
And when they trod the wintry strand,
With prayer and psalm they worshiped Thee.
2 Thou heard'st, well pleased, the song, the prayer;
Thy blessing came; and still its pow'r
Shall onward thro' all ages bear
The memory of that holy hour.
3 Laws, freedom, truth, and faith in God
Came with those exiles o'er the waves;
And where their pilgrim feet have trod,
The God they trusted guards their graves.
4 And here Thy Name, O God of love,
Their children's children shall adore,
Till these eternal hills remove,
And spring adorns the earth no more.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

for the love that crowns our days;
bounteous source of every joy,
let your praise our tongues employ:
2 for the blessings of the fields,
for the stores the garden yields,
flocks that whiten all the plain;
yellow sheaves of ripened grain:
3 all that spring with bounteous hand
scatters o'er the smiling land,
all that liberal autumn pours
from its rich o'erflowing stores;
4 These to you, O God, we owe,
source from which all blessings flow;
and for these our souls shall raise
grateful vows and solemn praise. Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS

Of the opening year,
Words of comfort meet us,
Hushing every fear;
Spoken through the silence
By our Father's voice,
Tender, strong and faithful,
Making us rejoice.
Refrain:
Onward then, and fear not,
Children of the day;
For His Word shall never,
Never pass away.
2 For the year before us,
O what rich supplies!
For the poor and needy
Living streams shall rise;
For the sad and sinful
Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble
Perfect strength be found. (Refrain)
3 He will never fail us,
He will not forsake;
His eternal cov'nant
He will never break.
Resting on His promise,
What have we to fear?
God is all-sufficient
For the coming year. (Refrain)
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBAN

Give Thanks, My Soul, For Harvest
Author: William Watkins Reid, Sr. Hymnal: Voices United #522 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving 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. Tune Title: MUNICH
Give Thanks, My Soul, For Harvest
