452. The God of Harvest Praise

1 The God of harvest praise;
in loud thanksgivings raise
hand, heart, and voice;
the valleys laugh and sing,
forests and mountains ring,
the plains their tribute bring,
the streams rejoice.

2 O bless his holy name,
and joyful thanks proclaim
through all the earth;
be grateful and receive
God's blessing; and believe;
his love does not deceive.
Now share your mirth!

3 The God of harvest praise;
hands, hearts, and voices raise
with sweet accord;
from field to store the grain,
bearing your sheaves again,
and in your glad refrain
now bless the Lord.
