Author: Julia H. Johnston Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8112 Meter: 11.10.11.10 D First Line: See, in the woodland, the leaves turning crimson Refrain First Line: Praise the Creator who giveth us richly Lyrics: 1 See, in the woodland, the leaves turning crimson;
Hark, how they rustle and fall to the ground.
Autumn, bright autumn is smiling and glowing,
Showing the treasures that now may be found.
Refrain:
Praise the Creator who giveth us richly
All His good bounty to use and enjoy;
Lift up your hearts and your voices in singing,
Joyful thanksgiving the days should employ.
2 Sheaves that are golden are housed in the garner,
Fruits that have ripened are gathered and stored.
Autumn has come with its bounteous blessing,
Riches and beauty are freely out-poured. [Refrain]
3 Life has its autumn, its sheaves to be garnered,
Then we shall reap what at first we have sown;
Grant us, O Father, Thy grace and Thy guidance,
Let us be reapers of blessings alone. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: CHILE
