Laborers in the vineyard
To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
Author: William Chatterton Dix, 1837-1898 Hymnal: Singing the Faith #129 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Matthew 20:12 Topics: Times and Seasons Languages: English Tune Title: BISHOPGARTH
To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
Author: William Chatterton Dix, 1837-1898 Hymnal: Common Praise #274 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Matthew 20:12 Lyrics: 1 To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
in hymns of adoration,
to thee bring sacrifice of praise
with shouts of exultation:
bright robes of gold the fields adorn,
the hills with joy are ringing,
the valleys stand so thick with corn
that even they are singing.
2 And now, on this our festal day,
thy bounteous hand confessing,
upon thine altar, Lord, we lay
the first-fruits of thy blessing:
by thee the hungry soul is fed
with gifts of grace supernal;
thou who dost give us earthly bread,
give us the bread eternal.
3 We bear the burden of the day,
and often toil seems dreary;
but labour ends with sunset ray,
and rest comes for the weary:
may we, the angel-reaping o'er,
stand at the last accepted,
Christ's golden sheaves for evermore
to garners bright elected.
4 O blessèd is that land of God,
where saints abide for ever;
where golden fields spread far and broad,
where flows the crystal river:
the strains of all its holy throng
with ours today are blending;
thrice blessèd is that harvest-song
which never hath an ending. Languages: English Tune Title: GOLDEN SHEAVES
To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
Light's abode, celestial Salem

vision whence true peace doth spring,
brighter than the heart can fancy,
mansion of the highest King;
O how glorious are the praises
which of thee the prophets sing!
2 There for ever and for ever
alleluia is outpoured;
for unending, for unbroken,
is the feast-day of the Lord;
all is pure and all is holy
that within thy walls is stored.
3 There no cloud or passing vapour
dims the brightness of the air;
endless noon-day, glorious noon-day,
from the Sun of suns is there;
there no night brings rest from labour,
for unknown are toil and care.
*4 O how glorious and resplendent,
fragile body, shalt thou be,
when endued with so much beauty,
full of health and strong and free,
full of vigour, full of pleasure
that shall last eternally.
*5 Now with gladness, now with courage,
bear the burden on thee laid,
that hereafter these thy labours
may with endless gifts be paid;
and in everlasting glory
thou with brightness be arrayed.
6 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run. Topics: Lent II Year C; Proper 23 Year A Languages: English Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE

For the Fruit of All Creation
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Glory to God #36 (2013) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Scripture: Matthew 20:1-16 Lyrics: 1 For the fruit of all creation,
thanks be to God.

thanks be to God.

silent growth while we are sleeping,
future needs in earth's safekeeping,
thanks be to God.
2 In the just reward of labor,
God's will be done.
In the help we give our neighbor,

in the harvests we are sharing,
God's will be done.
3 For the harvests of the Spirit,
thanks be to God.
For the good we all inherit,
thanks be to God.
For the wonders that astound us,
for the truths that still confound us,
most of all that love has found us,
thanks be to God.
