Lyics

THE God of harvest praise;

In loud thanksgiving raise

Hand, heart, and voice;

The valleys smile and sing,

Forest and mountains ring,

The plains their tribute bring,

The streams rejoice.



Yea, bless his holy name,

And purest thanks proclaim

Through all the earth;

To glory in your lot

Is duty,-but be not

God's benefits forgot,

Amidst your mirth.



The God of harvest praise;

Hands, hearts, and voices raise,

With sweet accord;

From field to garner throng,

Bearing your sheaves along,

And in your harvest song

Bless ye the Lord.
