Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] We plough the fields, and scatter the good seed on the land, but it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand: he sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain, the breezes, and the sunshine, and soft, refreshing rain. [Chorus] All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love. [Verse 2] He only is the maker of all things near and far; he paints the wayside flower, he lights the evening star; the winds and waves obey him, by him the birds are fed; much more to us, his children, he gives our daily bread. [Chorus] All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love. [Verse 3] We thank thee then, O Father, for all things bright and good, the seed-time and the harvest, our life, our health, our food. Accept the gifts we offer for all thy love imparts, and, what thou most desirest, our humble, thankful hearts. [Chorus] All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love.
