autumn's bountiful blessings
The year that is drawing toward its close
has been filled with the blessing of fruitful
fields and healthful skies....
they are the gracious gifts of the
MOST HIGH GOD!

Almighty! hear Thy children raise
The voice of thankfulness and praise
To Him whose wisdom deigned to plan
This fair and bright abode for man.
