Praise God for the harvest of farm and of field
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Praise God for the harvest of orchard and field,
praise God for the people who gather their yield,
the long hours of labour, the skills of a team,
the patience of science, the power of machine.
2 Praise God for the harvest that comes from afar,
from market and harbour, the sea and the shore:
foods packed and transported, and gathered and grown
by God-given neighbours, unseen and unknown.
3 Praise God for the harvest that's quarried and mined,
then sifted, and smelted, or shaped and refined:
for oil and for iron, for copper and coal,
praise God, who in love has provided them all.
4 Praise God for the harvest of science and skill,
the urge to discover, create and fulfil:
for dreams and inventions that promise to gain
a future more hopeful, a world more humane.

from leaders and peoples who struggle and serve
for patience and kindness, that all may be led
to freedom and justice, and all may be fed. Topics: Our Response to God in times and seasons; Church Universal; Harvest; Kindness; Science and Technology; Trade and Industry Used With Tune: STOWEY
