Come, Ye Thankful People, Come |
Come, ye thankful people, come, raise the song of harvest home |
All is safely gathered in, ere the winter storms begin |
God our Maker doth provide for our wants to be supplied |
Come to God’s own temple, come, raise the song of harvest home |
All the world is God’s own field, fruit unto His praise to yield |
Wheat and tares together sown unto joy or sorrow grown |
First the blade and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear |
Lord of harvest, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be |
For the Lord our God shall come and shall take His harvest home |
From His field shall in that day all offenses purge away |
Giving angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast |
But the fruitful ears to store in His garner evermore |
Even so, Lord, quickly come, bring Thy final harvest home |
Gather Thou Thy people in, free from sorrow, free from sin |
There, forever purified, in Thy garner to abide |
Come, with all Thine angels come, raise the glorious harvest home |
