As Those of Old Their First-Fruits Brought
Author: Frank von Christierson Hymnal: Voices United #518 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 As those of old their first-fruits brought
of vineyard, flock, and field
to God, the giver of all good,
the source of bounteous yield,
so we today our first-fruits bring,
the wealth of this good land:
of farm and market, shop and home,
of mind and heart and hand.
2 A world in need now summons us
to labour, love, and give;
to make our life an offering
to God that all may live.
The church of Christ is calling us
to make the dream come true:
a world redeemed, by Christ-like love,
all life in Christ made new.
3 With gratitude and humble trust
we bring our best to you,
not just to serve your cause,
but share your love with neighbours too.
O God, who gave yourself to us
in Jesus Christ, your son,
help us to give ourselves each day
until life's work is done. Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

for the love that crowns our days;
bounteous source of every joy,
let your praise our tongues employ:
2 for the blessings of the fields,
for the stores the garden yields,
flocks that whiten all the plain;
yellow sheaves of ripened grain:
3 all that spring with bounteous hand
scatters o'er the smiling land,
all that liberal autumn pours
from its rich o'erflowing stores;
4 These to you, O God, we owe,
source from which all blessings flow;
and for these our souls shall raise
grateful vows and solemn praise. Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS

Give Thanks, My Soul, For Harvest
Author: William Watkins Reid, Sr. Hymnal: Voices United #522 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving Day First Line: Give thanks, my soul for harvest Lyrics: 1 Give thanks, my soul, for harvest,
for store of fruit and grain;
but know the owner gives so
that we may share again.
Where people suffer hunger,
or little children cry,
with gifts from God’s rich bounty
may thankfulness reply.
2 Give thanks, my soul, for riches
of woodland, mine, and hill;
but know that gold and timber
are the Creator's still.
God lends to us, as stewards,
abundance we might share,
and thus provide earth's children
the blessing of God's care.
3 Give thanks, my soul, for labours,
that strength and days employ;
but know the Maker's purpose
brings toil as well as joy.
Show forth, O God, your purpose;
direct our will and hand
to share your love and bounty
with all in every land. Tune Title: MUNICH

For the beauty of the earth
Author: F. S. Pierpoint Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #529 (1913) Topics: Various Occasions Thanksgiving Day; Various Occassions Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies:

This our grateful psalm of praise.
2 For the wonder of each hour
Of the day and of the night:
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,
Sun and moon and stars of light;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our grateful psalm of praise.
3 For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child;
Friends on earth, and friends above,
Pleasures pure and undefiled;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our grateful psalm of praise.
4 For Thy Church that evermore
Lifts her holy hands above,
Offering up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love:
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our grateful psalm of praise.

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Nils Holm Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #657 (1919) Topics: Thanksgiving Day; Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Nu lader os fremtræde
Med Takkesang og Glæde
For Herren, som os Livet
Og meget Godt har givet.
2 Et Aar vi saa hensvinde,
Det kalder os til Minde
De mange gode Gaver,
Som Gud os givet haver.
3 Som Mødre til de Spæde
Henile, naar de græde,
Og dem i Nød og Fare
Med største Flid bevare;
4 Saaledes Gud beskjærmer
Sit Folk, naar Angst sig nærmer;
Tidt, før vi Faren kjender,
Hans Hænder den bortvender.
5 Du, som vort Liv bevarer,
Fra Aar til Aar os sparer,
Ak, lukte du dig Øie,
Forgjæves var vor Møie!
6 Du har din store Naade
Mod os saa overmaade
Hver Morgen villet vise,
Derfor vi dig nu prise.
7 Mens her endnu vi trænges,
Lad efter dig os længes,
For Alting du os give
Med Taal hos dig at blive!
8 Du paa din Vei os føre,
Velsigne, hvad vi gjøre,
Som Naadens Sol du glæde
De Gamle med de Spæde!
9 Men fremfor Alt, o Herre!
Din Aand lad hos os være,
Han her for dig os pryde,
Til vi os hjemme fryde!
10 Giv os til Nytaarsgave,
Hvad vi nu bedet have!
O du, vort Liv i Live,
Vi i din Haand os give!

Not Alone for Mighty Empire
Author: William Pierson Merrill Hymnal: The Worshipbook #479 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Civil Year Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Not alone for mighty empire
Stretching far beyond our view,
Not alone for bounteous harvests,
Lift we up our hearts to you.
Standing in the living present,
Memory and hope between,
Lord, we would with deep thanksgiving
Praise you most for things unseen.
2 Not for battleship and fortress,
Not for conquests of the sword,
But for conquests of the spirit
Give we thanks to you, O Lord;
For the priceless gift of freedom,
For the home, the church, the school,
For the open door to manhood
In a land the people rule.
3 For the armies of the faithful,
Souls that passed and left no name;
For the glory that illumines
Patriot lives of deathless fame;
For our prophets and apostles,
Loyal to the living Word,
For all heroes of the spirit,
Give we thanks to you, O Lord.
4 God of justice, save the people
From the clash of race and creed,
From the strife of class and faction:
Make our nation free indeed.
Keep her faith in simple manhood
Strong as when her life began,
Till it find its full fruition
In the brotherhood of man.
Amen. Scripture: James 1:22-27 Tune Title: GENEVA

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #227 (1996) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Topics: Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 For the fruit of all creation,
thanks be to God.
For these gifts to every nation,
thanks be to God.
For the ploughing, sowing, reaping,
silent growth while we are sleeping,
future needs in earth's safe-keeping,
thanks be to God.
2 In the just reward of labour,
God's will is done.
In the help we give our neighbour,
God's will is done.
In our worldwide task of caring
for the hungry and despairing,
in the harvests we are sharing,
God's will is done.
3 For the harvests of the Spirit,
thanks be to God.
For the good we all inherit,
thanks be to God.
For the wonders that astound us,
for the truths that still confound us,
most of all that love has found us,
thanks be to God. Languages: English Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS
