Harvest Homage

Tune: Aurelia

('The church's one foundation')

******

Psalm 65 v.9

At harvest celebration

Recalling your works done

O Lord, you do earth visit

Water it as seems fit

To enable growth, blessing

And too sunshine you bring

River of God, abundance

Flowing from your grace hence

Psalm 65 v.10

When you have so provided

For man's needs, they not hid

From you, but you them know all

And as to you we call

So you prepare corn to reap

Good, wholesome, it you keep

Then man's labours do gather

What you on us confer

Psalm 67 v.5-7

Let the people, God, praise you

All people sing anew

Then shall earth yield her increase

That which you to us lease

And you our God, you shall bless

We gratefully confess

All ends of earth shall you fear

And know your presence near

Psalm 66 v.3

In your works how terrible

You are Lord, how aweful

Through greatness of your power

Foes submit every hour

Unto you, for almighty

You evermore shall be

Whate'er enemies plot they

Shall end in vanity

Psalm 65 v.11-12

You crown the year with goodness

Pastures of wilderness

And little hills on each side

Rejoice, for you provide

Fields clothed with all their flocks are

Valleys with corn, look far

They extend wide, broad, showing

Fullness, they joy and sing

Psalm 66 v.8-9

O bless our God, you people

Come praise, worship Him all

Make the voice of His praise sure

To be heard, strong and pure

He holds our soul in life here

Each one to Him is dear

Sets us firm, so we unmoved

Our harvest-tide renewed
