Author: Rev. J. H. Gurney Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #569 (1894) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Fair waved the golden corn
In Canaan's pleasant land,
When, full of joy, some shining morn,
Went forth the reaper-band.
2 To God, so good and great,
Their cheerful thanks they pour;
Then carry to His temple-gate
The choicest of their store.
3 Like Israel, Lord, we give
Our earliest fruits to Thee,
And pray that, long as we shall live,
We may Thy children be.
4 Thine is our youthful prime,
And life and all its powers;
Be with us in our morning time,
And bless our evening hours.
5 In wisdom let us grow,
As years and strength are given,
That we may serve Thy Church below,
And join Thy saints in heaven.
Amen. Topics: For Children Languages: English Tune Title: [Fair waved the golden corn]
