Ere the winter storms begin;

For our wants to be supplied:

Raise the song ;f harvest -home.
All this world is God's own field,
Fruit unto His praise to yield;

Unto joy or sorrowgrown;
First the blades and then the ear,
Then the full corn shy ll appear:
Lord of harvest, ;rant that we
VNaolesomo grain aloe .pure may be.
.For the Lord our sod shall co,Ee ;
And shall take Tis harvest home;
From His field shall .in glut day
All offences purge away;
Give His an els charVo at last
Ia the fire the tares to cast;
But the fruitful cars to store
In His garner evermore.

To Thy final harvest home:

Come, with all Thine anels, come,
Raise the glorious harvest -home.

Hymn #23 The Hymnary (con,gre6ation seated)
When all Thy mercies, 0 my God,
My rising soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wander, love, and praise.
0 how shall words, with equal warmth,
The gratitude declare
That gloves 'within my ravished heart?
But Thou canst read it there.
Ten thousand thousand. precious gilts
My daily thanks employ;
Tor is the least a cheerful heart
That tastes these gifts with joy.
)then worn with sickness, oft past Thou
';`.rith health renewed my face;
And, when in sins and sorrows sunk,
Revived m—,r soul with grace.
mhrou3h every period of my life
Thy Soodness I'll pursue;
And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
When nature fails, and da IT and
Divide Thy works no more,
Ey ever -Grateful heart, 0 Lori',
Thy mercy shall adore.
Prayer of Confession (All) Almighty God:
in love you spread ;race and nature before us,
more than we need or deserve. You feed, heal,
teach, and save us. Ke confess that we always
want more; that we never share as freely as you
give. Ne misuse what you intend for joy. God,
forgive our abuse of your creation. Give us
vision of the City whose street .is a river of
living waters, where the tree of life blooms,
and its leaves are for the healing of men. In
mercy, give us such pleasure in your goodness
that we will alf.a_ o thank you, in Jesus Christ.

Hymn #578 Hymnary
Sing to the Lord of harvest,'
Sing songs of love and praise,
With joyful hearts and voices
Your hallelujahs raise;
By Him the rolling seasons
In fruitful order move;
Sing to the Lord of harvest
A song of happy love.
By him the clouds drop fatness,
The deserts bloom and spring,
The hills laap up in glabaess,
The valleys laugh and sing:
He filleth with His fullness
All things with large ilcre<_so;
He crowns the year with Soodacss,
Jith plenty and with _pence.
Heap on His sacred altor
The gifts His ;goodness gave,
The holden sheaves of harvest,
The souls he died to save:
Your hearts lay down before Him
.then at His feet ye fall,
And with your lives adore Hires
VAlo gave His life for all.
