Praise Our God Above
1. Praise our God above,
Source of boundless love:
Spring wind, summer rain,
Then the harvest grain;
Pearly rice and corn,
Fragrant autumn morn.
Though our work is hard,
God gives us reward.
2. God's care like a cloak
Wraps us country folk,
Makes all green things grow,
Ripens what we sow.
Through God we are strong;
Sing our harvest song.
Sing praise, field and flower,
Praise God's mighty power.
