#562Come, Sing a Song of Harvest
Hymn Display
1
Come, sing a song of harvest,
Of thanks for daily food!
To offer God the first-fruits
Is old as gratitude.
2
Long, long ago, the reapers,
Before they kept the feast,
Put first-fruits in a basket
And took it to the priest.
3
Shall we, sometimes forgetful
Of where creation starts,
With science in our pockets
Lose wonder from our hearts?
4
God, the great Creator,
To whom all life belongs,
Accept these gifts we offer,
And our songs.
5
And lest the world go hungry
While we ourselves are fed,
Make each of us more ready
To share our daily bread.
