The prophets spoke of mercy, of rescue and release: God shall fulfill his promise and bring his people peace. 2 He comes! the Child of David, the Son whom God has given; he comes to live among us and raise us up to heaven: before him goes his servant — forerunner in the way, the prophet of salvation, the herald of the Day. 3 Where once were fear and darkness, the sun begins to rise — the dawning of forgiveness upon the sinner's eyes. He guides the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace: O bless our God and Saviour, with songs that never cease!

Author: William Watkins Reid, 1890- Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Give thanks, my soul, for harvest, for store of fruit and grain, but know the owner gives us that we may share again; where souls are lone and hungry, where needy 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, and God's on loan to stewards to fashion and to share, providing all earth's children the blessing of God's care. 3 Give thanks, my soul, for labours that strength and days employ, but know your Maker's purpose brings toil as well as joy. Where leads the path to error, where justice lies in chain, where hoarders cause new hunger, there must we strive again. 4 Give thanks, my soul, for beauty, for vision, hope and skill, for Christ, divine revealer of God's redeeming will. Show forth, O God, your purpose; direct our will and hand to share your love and bounty with all, in every land.
