In loud thanksgiving raise
Hand, heart, and voice;
The valleys laugh and sing,
Forests and mountains ring,
The plains their tribute bring,
The streams rejoice.
2 Yea, bless His holy name,
And joyful thanks proclaim
Through all the earth;
To glory in your lot
Is comely, but be not
God's benefits forgot,
Amidst your mirth.
3 The God of harvest praise;
Hands, hearts, and voices raise
With one accord;
From field to garner throng,
Bearing your sheaves along;
And in your harvest song
Bless ye the Lord.
AMEN. Topics: Kingdomtide; Thanksgiving Used With Tune: BETHEL
