Text: | The God of Harvest Praise |
Author: | James Montgomery |
Tune: | ITALIAN HYMN |
Composer: | Felice de Giardini |
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.
