  1. 1Sing to the Lord of harvest,
  2. Sing songs of love and praise;
  3. With joyful hearts and voices
  4. Your Hallelujahs raise:
  5. By Him the rolling seasons
  6. In fruitful order move.
  7. Sing to the Lord of harvest
  8. A song of happy love.
  9. 2By Him the clouds drop fatness,
  10. The deserts bloom and spring;
  11. The hills leap up in gladness,
  12. The valleys laugh and sing.
  13. He filleth with His fullness
  14. All things with large increase,
  15. He crowns the year with goodness,
  16. With plenty and with peace.
  17. 3Bring to His sacred altar
  18. The gifts His goodness gave,
  19. The golden sheaves of harvest,
  20. The souls He died to save:
  21. Your hearts lay down before Him,
  22. When at His feet we fall,
  23. And with your lives adore Him,
  24. Who gave His life for all.
  25. 4To God, the gracious Father,
  26. who made us "very good";
  27. To Christ, who, when we wandered,
  28. Restored us with His blood;
  29. And to the Holy Spirit,
  30. Who doth upon us pour
  31. His blessed dews and sunshine,
  32. Be praise for evermore.
