Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Appears in 72 hymnals Lyrics: 1 For the fruits of his creation,
thanks be to God;
for his gifts to ev'ry nation,
thanks be to God;
for the plouging, sowing, reaping,
silent growth while we are sleeping,
future needs in earth's safekeeping,
thanks be to God.
2 In the just reward of labor,
God's will is done;
in the help we give our neighbor,
God's will is done;
in our worldwide task of caring
for the hungry and despairing,
in the harvests we are sharing,
God's will is done.
3 For the harvests of his Spirit,
thanks be to God;
for the good we all inherit,
thanks be to God;
for the wonders that astound us,
for the truths that still confound us,
most of all that love has found us,
thanks be to God!
