Praise God for the harvest of farm and of field

Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 67:6-7 Lyrics: 1 Praise God for the harvest of orchard and field, praise God for the people who gather their yield, the long hours of labour, the skills of a team, the patience of science, the power of machine. 2 Praise God for the harvest that comes from afar, from market and harbour, the sea and the shore: foods packed and transported, and gathered and grown by God-given neighbours, unseen and unknown. 3 Praise God for the harvest that's quarried and mined, then sifted, and smelted, or shaped and refined: for oil and for iron, for copper and coal, praise God, who in love has provided them all. 4 Praise God for the harvest of science and skill, the urge to discover, create and fulfil: for dreams and inventions that promise to gain a future more hopeful, a world more humane. 5 Praise God for the harvest of mercy and love, from leaders and peoples who struggle and serve for patience and kindness, that all may be led to freedom and justice, and all may be fed.
