Come Sing A Song of Harvest

1

Come, sing a song of harvest,
Of thanks for daily food!
To offer God the first fruits
Is old as gratitude.

2

Long, long ago, the reapers,
Before they kept the feast,
Put firstfruits in a basket,
And took it to the priest.

3

Shall we, sometimes forgetful
Of where creation starts,
With science in our pockets
Lose wonder from our hearts?

4

May God, the great creator,
To whom all life belongs,
Accept this gifts we offer,
Our service and our songs.

5

And lest the world go hungry
While ourselves are fed,
Make each of us more ready
To share our daily bread.
