"Harvest Seasons" Jill Darby (arr. Jon Shepherd)
In the Spring the earth is waking
With the sun and gentle rain.
It's the time when nature's making
Colours come alive again.
In the Summer days are lighter
Grain is ripened by the sun.
All the world is feeling brighter
Holidays for everyone.
In the Autumn leaves are turning
Red and yellow, brown and gold.
See the garden bonfires burning
Nights will soon be getting cold.
In the Winter rivers freeze
The earth is sleeping everywhere.
Cold winds whistle through the trees
And all the ground is hard and bare.
So at harvest-time we thank you
For the lovely things you send.
For the seasons and the weather
And your gifts that never end.
"Thankyou Lord for Harvest"
All the leaves are falling down,
Orange, yellow, red and brown.
Falling softly as they do...
Thankyou Lord for Harvest!
Apples growing on the tree
Green and red for you and me
Lovely fruit for us to eat
Thankyou Lord for Harvest!
Harvest, Harvest 1and 2 and 3
See the farmers gather in
Food for you and me
Harvest, Harvest 1and 2 and 3
See the farmers gather in
Food for you and me
All the leaves are falling down,
Orange, yellow, red and brown.
Falling softly as they do...
Thankyou Lord for Harvest!
Apples growing on the tree
Green and red for you and me
Lovely fruit for us to eat
Thankyou Lord for Harvest!
Harvest, Harvest 1and 2 and 3
See the farmers gather in
