To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise
Author: William Chatterton Dix (1837-1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 112 hymnals Topics: Food and Hunger 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. Scripture: Exodus 23:15-16 Used With Tune: GOLDEN SHEAVES
To thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise

The victims of injustice cry
For shelter and for bread to eat,
And never live until they die.

A caring Church that longs to be
A partner in Christ's sacrifice,
And clothed in Christ's humanity.
4 For he alone, whose blood was shed,
Can cure the fever in our blood,
And teach us how to share our bread
And feed the starving multitude.
5 We have no mission but to serve
In full obedience to our Lord:
To care for all, without reserve,
And spread his liberating Word. Scripture: Ephesians 1:18-19 Used With Tune: DUNEDIN
