God of the earth and sky
Author: Hugh Braham Sherlock, 1905-1998 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #713 (2010) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Tune Title: HAREWOOD Lyrics: 1 God of the earth and sky,
Lord of our hills and plains,
Ruler of night and day,
bright sun and cooling rains –
O bounteous Lord, to thee we raise
our harvest hymn of joyful praise.
2 'Mid dancing azure seas,
upheld by thy command,
our lovely islands rise
in tropic splendour planned.
And we are stewards of thy grace
until we see thee face to face.
3 Thine is the fruitful field,
the broad-leaved plantain thine;
banana, slender cane,
tall palm and lowly vine.
Thine own,O Lord, we bring to thee,
of all thy bounty rich and free.
4 Star-apples, purple-dyed
'mid leaves of bronze and green!
With ackee's scarlet hue
gay citrus gold is seen.
Thou matchless artist! Here may we
thine own eternal beauty see.
5 God of love! Not alone
in nature's form we find
that thou art great and good,
and merciful and kind:
for Jesus died, that we might come
to share our heavenly Father's home.
6 As we with thankful hearts
these festive anthems sing,
and gladly to thy house
our harvest offering bring,
O, help, Blessèd Trinity,
ourselves to consecrate to thee.
