1 The earth is yours, O God
you nourish it with rain;
the streams and rivers overflow,
the land bears seed again.
2 The soil is yours, O God
the shoots are moist with dew;
and ripened by the burning sun
the corn grows straight and true.
3 The hills are yours, O God
their grass is lush and green,
providing pastures for the flocks
which everywhere are seen.
4 The whole rich land is yours
for fodder or for plough:
and so, for rain, sun, soil and seed,
O God, we thank you now!

Includes Wide Format PowerPoint file!
Updated Format! Beginning in November of 2016, we changed the way we formatted our PowerPoint files. The font is larger and the staff lines are bolder, making the songs easier to read from a greater distance, including smaller screens/monitors in the rear of the sanctuary.
All songs digitized previous to that date are in the "older" format.
