Give Thanks, My Soul, For Harvest

Author: William Watkins Reid, Sr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Work and Recreation First Line: Give thanks, my soul for harvest Lyrics: 1 Give thanks, my soul, for harvest, for store of fruit and grain; but know the owner gives so that we may share again. Where people suffer hunger, or little children cry, with gifts from God’s rich bounty may thankfulness reply. 2 Give thanks, my soul, for riches of woodland, mine, and hill; but know that gold and timber are the Creator's still. God lends to us, as stewards, abundance we might share, and thus provide earth's children the blessing of God's care. 3 Give thanks, my soul, for labours, that strength and days employ; but know the Maker's purpose brings toil as well as joy. Show forth, O God, your purpose; direct our will and hand to share your love and bounty with all in every land. Used With Tune: MUNICH

Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Work and Recreation Lyrics: 1 Now let us from this table rise renewed in body, mind and soul; with Christ we die and live again, his selfless love has made us whole. 2 With minds alert, upheld by grace, to spread the word in speech and deed, we follow in the steps of Christ, at one with all in hope and need. 3 To fill each human house with love, it is the sacrament of care; the work that Christ began to do we humbly pledge ourselves to share. 4 Then give us grace, Companion-God, to choose again the pilgrim way and help us to accept with joy the challenge of tomorrow's day.

In the Bulb There Is a Flower

Author: Natalie Sleeth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Work and Recreation Lyrics: 1 In the bulb there is a flower; in the seed, an apple tree; in cocoons, a hidden promise: butterflies will soon be free! In the cold and snow of winter there's a spring that waits to be, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. 2 There's a song in every silence, seeking word and melody; there's a dawn in every darkness, bringing hope to you and me. From the past will come the future; what it holds, a mystery, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. 3 In our end is our beginning; in our time, infinity; in our doubt there is believing; in our life, eternity. In our death, a resurrection; at the last, a victory, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. Used With Tune: PROMISE
