Product Description
This anthem has been described as "masterfully crafted" and "the definitive Thanksgiving medley." Featuring three hymns, "Come, Ye Thankful People, Come," "Sing to the Lord of Harvest," and "Now Thank We All Our God," the congregation may sing, if desired, on the opening and closing stanzas of the medley. Weaving "Alleluias" throughout, it offers brass sextet accompaniment (optional, parts available separately) for larger choirs and a solo trumpet obbligato (optional, part included) for smaller choirs.
Lyrics
Alleluia! Alleluia! Raise the song of harvest home!
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.
Sing to the Lord of harvest,
Sing songs of love and praise;
With joyful hearts and voices
Your alleluias raise.
By Him the rolling seasons
In fruitful order move;
Sing to the Lord of harvest,
A joyous song of love.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Sing to the Lord an alleluia!
Now thank we all our God,
With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done,
In whom this world rejoices;
Who from our mothers' arms
Has blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Raise the song of harvest home!
