for the love that crowns our days;
bounteous Source of every joy,

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 thee, O God, we owe,
Source whence all our blessings flow;
and for these our souls shall raise
grateful vows and solemn praise. Topics: Rogation Days; Harvest Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS

O Spirit of the living God
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Together in Song #405 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Joel 2:21-29 Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
in all the fullness of your grace,
wherever human feet has trod,
descend upon our rebellious race.
2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
to preach the reconciling word;
anoint with power from heaven above
whenever gospel truth is heard.
3 Let darkness, at your coming, light;
confusion, order in your path;
souls without strength inspire with might;
bid mercy triumph over wrath.
4 O, Spirit of the Lord, prepare
the whole round earth its God to meet;
and breathe abroad like morning air,
till hearts of stone begin to beat.
5 Baptize the nations; far and wide
the triumphs of the Cross record;
the name of Christ be glorified;
let every people call him Lord.

O Spirit of the living God
Priscilla Wright
b. 1928 Scripture: Joel 2 Versifier of "Fear Not, Rejoice and Be Glad" in Psalter Hymnal (Gray) Priscilla Wright (b. Dallas, TX, 1928) studied at community colleges in Denver and Dallas and also studied theology at Christ for the Nations Institute of Biblical Studies in Dallas. She worked in inner-city social services for the Church of the Redeemer in Dallas and was the house director for the Dallas Ronald McDonald House, a residence for families of hospitalized children. Wright cites her association with the Church of the Redeemer (Episcopal) as the most prominent influence in her life: “There was always the awesome awareness that God was orchestrating a new thing [in charismatic Christian worship], and in retrospect it is evident that the renewal which took place there was a catalyst for renewal in many other parts of the world."

Jenison, Mi, August 17, 2012) was a member of the 1987 Psalter Hymnal 1987 Revision Committee, and was professor of music and director of choral music at Dordt College, Sioux Center, Iowa, from 1960 until he retired in 1994 to concentrate on composition. Educated at Calvin College; Michigan State University, Lansing; and Ohio State University, Columbus; he combined teaching with composition throughout his career and was a widely published composer of choral music. He also directed the Dordt choir in a large number of recordings, including many psalm arrangements found in the 1959 edition of the Psalter Hymnal.
Before coming to Dordt, Grotenhuis taught music at Christian high schools in Washington and Michigan. Under his direction, the Dordt College concert choir participated in annual tours that took members throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. He loved the church and the music of the church. His favorite song was "All Glory Be to God on High".
