- Come, sing a song of harvest, Of thanks for daily food!
To offer God the first-fruits is old as gratitude. - Long, long ago, the reapers, before they kept the feast,
Put first-fruits in a basket, and took it to the priest. - Shall we, sometimes forgetful oh where creation starts,
With science in our pockets lose wonder from our hearts? - May God, the great Creator, to whom all life belongs,
Accept these gifts we offer, our service and our songs. - And lest the world go hungry while we ourselves are fed,
Make each of us more ready to share our daily bread.
