Thanksgiving for victory over our enemies
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DXXIX (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Times and Seasons Days of Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving days First Line: To thee, who reign'st supreme above Lyrics: 1 To thee, who reign'st supreme above,
And reign's supreme below,
Thou God of wisdom, power, and love,
We our successes owe.
2 The thundering horse, the martial band,
Without thine aid were vain;
And victory flies at thy command
To crown the bright campaign.
3 Thy mighty arm, unseen, was nigh,
When we our foes assail'd;
'Tis thou hast rais'd our honors high,
And o'er their hosts prevail'd.
4 Their mounds, their camps, their lofty towers
Into our hands are given,
Not from desert or strength of ours,
But thro' the grace of heaven.
5 What tho' no columns lifted high
Stand deep inscrib'd with praise,
Yet sounding honors to the sky
Our grateful tongues shall raise.
6 To our young race will we proclaim
The mercies God has shown;
That they may learn to bless his name,
And choose him for their own.
7 Thus while we sleep in silent dust,
When threatening dangers come,
Their father's God shall be their trust,
Their refuge and their home. Languages: English

Come, You Thankful People, Come
Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: Voices United #516 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Come, you thankful people, come,
raise the song of harvest-home!
All is safely gathered in,
safe before the storms begin;
God, our maker, does provide
for our needs to be supplied:
come to God's own temple, come,
raise the song of harvest-home!
2 All the world is God's own field,
harvests for God's praise to yield;
wheat and weeds together sown,
here for joy or sorrow grown;
first the blade, and then the ear,
then the full corn shall appear:
Harvest-giver, grant that we
wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For our God, one day, shall come,
and shall take this harvest home,
from the field shall in that day
all offences purge away;
giving angels charge at last
in the fire the weeds to cast,
but the fruitful ears to store
in the garner evermore.
4 Even so, God, quickly come
to your final harvest-home!
Gather all your people in,
free from sorrow, free from sin;
there for ever purified,
in your presence to abide:
come, with all your angels, come,
raise the glorious harvest-home. Scripture: Matthew 13:24-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ST GEORGE'S, WINDSOR
Come, You Thankful People, Come

2 Give thanks, my soul, for riches
of woodland, mine, and hill;

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

Lifts her holy hands above,
Offering up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love:

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
