lyrics

In the fire of the year, we gather here
To offer thanks for the bread and the beer
Made from the grain we sowed in the spring
Symbol of life turning, Symbol of life turning

In the fire of the year we gather here
Sun-brown faces, earth-stained hands
Compelled by the sun, released by the rain
We are the grain. We are the grain. We are the grain

With sun-browned faces, earth stained hands
With Autumn upon us, we look to the land
To the green of the corn and the gold of the wheat
With grace from the heavens, our harvest is sweet
With grace from the heavens, it’s sweet

Sow from your harvest, give of your gifts
Swift is each season’s refrain
Yours to remember, yours to sustain
Compelled by the sun, released by the rain

We are the grain, born from the seed
We give of ourselves to others in need
Planted with promise and bound by the hour
We come here in joy aware of our power
We come here in joy and power
