Now Thank we all our God

Author: Miss C. Winkworth; M. Rinkart Hymnal: Concordia #98 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Now thank we all our God, With heart and hands and voices, Who wondrous things hath done, In whom His world rejoices; Who from our mother's arms Has blessed us on our way With countless gifts of love, And still is ours today. 2 O may this bounteous God, Through all our life be near us, With ever joyful hearts, And blessed peace to cheer us; And keep us in His grace, And guide us when perplexed, And free us from all ills, In this world and the next. 3 All praise and thanks to God The Father now be given, The Son and Him who reigns With them in highest heaven; The one eternal God, Whom earth and heaven adore; For thus it was, is now, And shall be evermore!

Once More the Liberal Year Laughs Out

Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: Concordia #99 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Thanksgiving First Line: Once more the lib'ral year laughs out Lyrics: 1 Once more the lib'ral year laughs out O'er richer stores than gems or gold; Once more, with harvest-song and shout, Is nature's bloodless triumph told. 2 O favors ev'ry year made new! O blessings with the sunshine sent! The bounty overruns our due, The fullness shames our discontent. 3 We shut our eyes, the flow'rs bloom on; We murmur, but the corn ears fill; We choose the shadow, but the sun That casts it, shines behind us still. 4 Now let these altars, wreath'd with flow'rs And piled with fruits, awake again Thanksgiving for the golden hours, The early and the latter rain.

Now Sing we a Song for the Harvest

Hymnal: Concordia #100 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Now sing we a song for the harvest, Thanksgiving and honor and praise, For all that the bountiful Giver Hath given to gladden our days: 2 For grasses of upland and lowland, For fruits of the garden and field, For gold which the mine and the prairie To delver and husband-man yield. 3 And thanks for the harvest of beauty, For that which the hands cannot hold, The harvest eyes only can gather, And only our hearts can enfold: 4 We reap it on mountain and moorland, We glean it from meadow and lea, We garner it in from the cloud-land, We bind it in sheaves from the sea. 5 But now we sing deeper and higher, Of harvests that eye cannot see; They ripen on mountains of duty Are reaped by the brave and the free. 6 O Thou who art Lord of the harvest, The Giver who gladdens our days, Our hearts are forever repeating Thanksgiving and honor, and praise.

When Rome had shrouded earth in night

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #4 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: TheChurch Year Festival of the Reformation; Church Afflicted and Militant Lyrics: 1 When Rome had shrouded earth in night, God said again, Let there be light! And Luther with the Gospel came To spread the truth in Jesus' name. 2 When Rome the saints of God oppressed, And burdened souls could find no rest, Through Luther God deliv'rance sent By His pure Word and Sacrament. 3 Though hosts against us stand arrayed, Christ bids us still, Be not afraid; Though all its powers the truth assail, The gates of hell shall not prevail. 4 To-day with joyful hearts we sing The guardian care of Christ our King, Who through His chosen instrument To us hath this salvation sent. 5 O Lord, whose mercies still endure, Preserve to us Thy Gospel pure; Let it alone within us reign, That Thine the glory may remain.

Gird on thy fleshly mantle now, the weakness of our mortal state with deathless might invigorate. 5 Thy cradle here shall glitter bright, and darkness glow with new-born light, no more shall night extinguish day, where love's bright beams their power display. 6 O Jesu, virgin-born, to thee eternal praise and glory be, whom with the Father we adore and Holy Spirit, evermore.
