M. 4 4 Hartig's Vollständige Sammlung, Mainz c. 1829 b4 With songs and honors sound - ing loud Ad dress the Lord on high! He makes the grass the mountains crown, And corn in val-leys grow. 1 WITH songs and honors sounding loud Address the Lord on high! Over the heavens He spreads His cloud, And waters veil the sky. He sends His showers of blessing down To cheer the plains below; He makes the grass the mountains crown, And corn in valleys grow. 2 His steady counsels change the face He bids the sun cut short his race, His hoary frost, His fleecy snow, 3 He sends His word and melts the snow, The fields no longer mourn; He calls the warmer gales to blow, The changing wind, the flying cloud, With songs and honors sounding loud, Isaac Watts, 1719 WIR PFLÜGEN 7. 6. 7. 6. D. with Refrain Johann A. P. Schulz, 1747-1800 We plough the fields, and scatter The good seed on the land, But it is fed and wa-tered IWE plough the fields, and scatter The good seed on the land, But it is fed and watered The warmth to swell the grain, All good gifts around us Are sent from heaven above; Then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord 2 He only is the Maker Of all things near and far; He paints the wayside flower, He lights the evening star; By Him the birds are fed; 3 We thank Thee, then, O Father, For all Thy love imparts, But that which Thou desirest, Our humble, thankful hearts. Matthias Claudius, 1782; tr. Jane M. Campbell, 1861 |
