Harvest—or, the accepted Time and Day of Salvation

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Times and Seasons The Seasons of the Year First Line: See how the little toiling ant Lyrics: 1 See how the little toiling ant Improves the harvest hours: While summer lasts, thro' all her cells The choicest stores she pours. 2 While life remains, our harvest lasts; But youth of life's the prime; Best is this season for our work, And this th' accepted time. 3 To-day attend, is wisdom's voice, To-morrow, folly cries: And still to morrow 'tis, when, Oh! To-day the sinner dies. 4 When conscience speaks, its voice regard, And seize the tender hour; Humbly implore the promis'd grace, And God will give the power.

The Church in Trial

Hymnal: The Psalter #205 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Seasons First Line: O wherefore hast Thou cast us off Lyrics: 1 O wherefore hast Thou cast us off, O God, our God of old? Why art Thou angry with Thy sheep, The sheep of Thy own fold, The sheep of Thy own fold? 2 Remember Thy inheritance, Thy Church, redeemed by grace; Remember Zion's mount profaned, Thy ancient dwelling-place, Thy ancient dwelling-place. 3 In ruin long Thy temple lies; Arise, O God of grace; And see the ruin foes have wrought Within Thy holy place, Within Thy holy place. 4 Amid Thy courts are lifted high The standards of the foe, And impious hands with axe and fire Have laid Thy temple low, Have laid Thy temple low. 5 They have profaned the holy place Where Thou hast set thy Name, The sanctuaries of our God Are given to the flame, Are given to the flame. 6 We see no signs of power divine, No prophet speaks for Thee, And none can tell, and none can know, How long these woes shall be, How long these woes shall be. 7 How long, O God, shall blasphemy And shame reproach our land? Why dost Thou not destroy Thy foes With Thy almighty hand, With Thy almighty hand? 8 O God, Thou art our King of old, Salvation Thou hast wrought; In safety through the mighty sea Our fathers Thou hast brought, Our fathers Thou hast brought. 9 With mighty arm Thou didst destroy The pride of boastful man, And for Thy people made a path Where mighty waters ran, Where mighty waters ran. 10 The day is Thine, and Thine the night, And Thine the shining sun; At Thy command earth's bounds are set And changing seasons run, And changing seasons run. 11 Mark how Thy enemies, O Lord, Against Thee proudly speak; Preserve Thy saints from wicked men, Be mindful of the meek, Be mindful of the meek. 12 Fulfill, o Lord, Thy covenant, Our strong protector be, For in the earth are dark abodes Of crime and cruelty, Of crime and cruelty. 13 Let not Thy saints be put to shame, No longer in Thy sight Permit Thy foes to vaunt themselves; Lord, vindicate the right, Lord, vindicate the right.

Well may thy praise our lips employ, While in thy temple we appear To hail thee Sovereign of the year. 2 Wide as the wheels of nature roll, Thy hand supports and cheers the whole! The sun is taught by thee to rise, And darkness when to veil the skies. 3 The flowery spring at thy command Perfumes the air and paints the land; The summer rays with vigour shine, To raise the corn and cheer the vine. 4 Thy hand, in autumn, richly pours Through all our coast redundant stores; And winters, soften'd by thy care, No more the face of horror wear. 5 Seasons, and months, and weeks, and days, Demand successive songs of praise: And be the grateful homage paid, With morning light and evening shade. 6 Here in thy house let incense rise, And circling sabbaths bless our eyes, Till to those lofty heights we soar, Where days and year revolve no more. Scripture: Psalm 65:11
