THAT seedtime follows harvest, God we thank Thee, That crops grow tall upon our yellow plains; That drift of sunlight on our fields in summer Is broken always by the promised rains; For courts whose doors stand wide in gallant justice, For schools that teach no prejudice, no ranks; For opportunity, for hope for freedom Once more, dear God for these we bring our thanks 0H, we are grateful as the year is ending, V That smoke blows high and dark against the sky A post of clouds to lead us back to Canaan promise now of labor by and by;
 Not any man, dear God, would ever ask for bounty Nor seek relief if he had work to do, So give us toil hard toil high toll, we beg Thee, We would be brave industrious, and true!
 ND as we pray, we seek further favor: A That when the autumn comes another year, No drums will throb on fields of distant battle, But all the skies of all the world be clear. We thank Thee that young eyes still hold vision, And that old men dream dreams-Oh, may we keep The good intensity of living always It matters more than all the crops we reap!
