The deserts bloom and spring;

All things with large increase,
And crowns the year with goodness,
With plenty and with peace.

The gifts which goodness gave,
The golden sheaves of harvest,
The souls Christ came to save;
Your hearts lay down in homage,
At holy feet now fall,
Through all your life adoring

by you the birds are fed;
much more, to us, your children,
you give our daily bread. [Refrain]

for all things bright and good,
the seed-time and the harvest,

your boundless love imparts;
the gifts to you most pleasing
are humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain] Scripture: Genesis 1:11-18 Languages: English Tune Title: HEISLMAN
