so, behold, all the gates of heaven unfold

Satan's curse and Satan's sway,
out of darkness brings our Day:
Refrain:
so, behold,
all the gates of heaven unfold.

We plow the field and scatter
Author: Matthias Claudius, 1740-1815; Jane Montgomery Campbell, 1817-1878 Hymnal: The Hymnal 1982 #291 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1. We plow the fields, and scatter
the good seed on the land,
but it is fed and watered
by God's almighty hand;
he sends the snow in winter,
the warmth to swell the grain,
the breezes and the sunshine,
and soft refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us
are sent from heaven above;
then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord
for all his love.
2. He only is the Maker
of all things near and far;
he paints the wayside flower,
he lights the evening star;
the wind and waves obey him,
by him the birds are fed;
much more to us, his children,
he gives our daily bread. [Refrain]
3. We thank thee, then, O Father,
for all things bright and good,
the seedtime and the harvest,
our life, our health, our food:
the gifts we have to offer
are what thy love imparts,
but chiefly thou desirest
our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain]

I sing a song of the saints of God
Author: Lesbia Scott, b. 1898 Hymnal: The Hymnal 1982 #293 (1985) Meter: Irregular Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions Saints' Days Lyrics: 1. I sing a song of the saints of God,
patient and brave and true,
who toiled and fought and lived and died
for the Lord they loved and knew.
And one was a doctor, and one was a queen,
and one was a shepherdess on the green:
they were all of them saints of God—and I mean,
God helping, to be one too.
2. They loved their Lord so dear, so dear,
and his love made them strong;
and they followed the right, for Jesus' sake,
the whole of their good lives long.
And one was a soldier, and one was a priest,
and one was slain by a fierce wild beast:
and there's not any reason, no, not the least,
why I shouldn't be one too.
3. They lived not only in ages past,
there are hundreds of thousands still,
the world is bright with the joyous saints
who love to do Jesus' will.
You can meet them in school, or in lanes, or at sea,
in church, or in trains, or in shops, or at tea,
for the saints of God are just folk like me,
and I mean to be one too. Languages: English Tune Title: GRAND ISLE

How oft, O Lord, thy face hath shone
Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Hymnal: The Hymnal 1982 #242 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions Saint Thomas (December 21) Lyrics: 1. How oft, O Lord, thy face hath shone
on doubting souls whose wills were true!
Thou Christ of Peter and of John,
thou art the Christ of Thomas too.
2. He loved thee well, and calmly said,
"Come, let us go, and die with him";
yet when thine Easter-news was spread,
mid all its light his eyes were dim.
3. His brethren's word he would not take,
but craved to touch those hands of thine:
when thou didst thine appearance make,
he saw, and hailed his Lord Divine.
4. He saw thee risen; at once he rose
to full belief's unclouded height;
and still through his confession flows
to Christian souls thy life and light.
5. O Savior, make thy presence known
to all who doubt thy Word and thee;
and teach us in that Word alone
to find the truth that sets us free.
