Harvest completed, thanksgiving

So are you thankful? Thankful to whom?
We know the One to whom we can come
offering thanks and worship – the Lord
Giver, Sustainer: provision outpoured.

So much received, how grateful am I?
And am I generous with this supply?
All that I own now really is His –
use it most carefully, and He will bless.

Throughout our world, such riches of food.
How much is wasted, cannot do good:
war, greed, extortion, unwilling to share,
so much destruction of of food everywhere.

Tune: 54 54 54 54 eg ‘Have thine own way’ by George Stebbins
