Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 31:14 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.

A Prophet-Woman Broke a Jar

Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 31:25-31 Lyrics: 1 A prophet-woman broke a jar, by Love's divine appointing. With rare perfume she filled the room, presiding and anointing. A prophet-woman broke a jar, the sneers of scorn defying. With rare perfume she filled the room, preparing Christ for dying. 2 A faithful woman left a tomb by Love's divine commission. She saw, she heard, she preached the Word, arising from submission. A faithful woman left a tomb, with resurrection gospel. She saw, she heard, she preached the Word, apostle to apostles. 3 Though woman-wisdom, woman-truth, for centuries were hidden, unsung, unwritten, and unheard, derided and forbidden, the Spirit's breath, the Spirit's fire, on free and slave descending, can tumble our dividing walls, our shame and sadness mending. The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls, by Love's divine ordaining, the friends we need, to serve and lead, their powers and gifts unchaining. The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls, from women, men and children, the friends we need, to serve and lead. Rejoice, and make them welcome! Used With Tune: MEGERRAN

Kind Words Can Never Die

Author: Unknown Meter: 10.10.12.10.12.10 Appears in 131 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 31:26 First Line: Kind words can never die; cherished and blest Lyrics: 1 Kind words can never die; cherished and blest, God knows how deep they lie, stored in the breast; Like childhood’s simple rhymes, said o’er a thousand times, Go through all years and climes, the heart to cheer. Refrain 1: Kind words can never die, never die, never die; Kind words can never die, no, never die. 2 Sweet thoughts can never die, though, like the flow’rs, Their brightest hues may fly in wintry hours; But when the gentle dew gives them their charms anew, With many an added hue they bloom again. Refrain 2: Sweet thoughts can never die, never die, never die; Sweet thoughts can never die, no, never die. 3 Our souls can never die, though in the tomb We all may have to lie, wrapped in its gloom; What though the flesh decay, souls pass in peace away, Live though eternal day, with Christ above. Refrain 3: Our souls can never die, never die, never die; Our souls can never die, no, never die.
