Author: Mary Mapes Dodge Hymnal: Let Youth Praise Him #43 (1964) First Line: For the fruit upon the tree Lyrics: 1 For the fruit upon the tree,
For the birds that sing of Thee,
For the earth in beauty dressed,
Father, mother, and the rest,
For Thy precious, loving care,
For Thy bounty ev'rywhere.
Refrain:
Father, we thank Thee,
Father, we thank Thee,
Father in heav'n, we thank Thee.
2 For our comrades and our plays
And our happy holidays,
For the joyful work and true
That a thoughtful child may do,
For our lives but just begun,
For the great gift of Thy Son, [Refrain] Topics: Praise, Thanksgiving, Worship Languages: English Tune Title: [For the fruit upon the tree]
