Autumn Days Lyrics
If, like me, you went to church to see the kids performing in the harvest festival this week, you’re probably sat there humming the tune to Autumn Days. Well just for you, I have found the words to Autumn days and added them below.
Autumn Days Lyrics
Autumn days, when the grass is jewelled
And the silk inside a chestnut shell
Jet planes meeting in the air to be refuelled
All these things I love so well
So I mustn’t forget
No, I mustn’t forget
To say a great big thank you
I mustn’t forget.
Clouds that look like familiar faces
And a winter’s moon with frosted rings
Smell of bacon as I fasten up my laces
And the song the milkman sings.
So I mustn’t forget
No, I mustn’t forget
To say a great big thank you
I mustn’t forget.
Whipped-up spray that is rainbow-scattered
And a swallow curving in the sky
Shoes so comfy though they’re worn out and they’re battered
And the taste of apple pie.
So I mustn’t forget
No, I mustn’t forget
To say a great big thank you
I mustn’t forget.
Scent of gardens when the rain’s been falling
And a minnow darting down a stream
Picked-up engine that’s been stuttering and stalling
And a win for my home team.
So I mustn’t forget
No, I mustn’t forget
To say a great big thank you
I mustn’t forget.
Autumn Days
by Estelle White
The hymn Autumn Days is obviously very popular at this time of the year as I am seeing more visitors to this page from people looking for the words to Autumn days, wanting to know who wrote Autumn Days or generally just asking questions about the song Autumn Days.
A lot of people obviously know the first line Autumn days, when the grass is jewelled because that phrase appears a lot in my analytics too.
It’s nice that so many people seem to remember the Autumn Days song and I dare say more and more people will be humming the tune again in a few weks after this years harvest festivals.
With my daughter moving up to big school in September and the leaving ceremony at her existing primary school coming up, I have also set up a page with the Sing Hosanna Lyrics

I like to sing this at church when we go with the school
unlike wordsmith, love this song, because it’s simple and as a kid i actually understood what it was talking about. plus it’s fun. the song says thanks for everything even the little things and harvest is all about that.
i lioove this song it so much better then all the others my school sing this one in every lesson its a rule.
I didn’t go to Church, but we used to sing this at my primary school every autumn. Brings back great memorys
wow

i always think about this song, and it reminds me of how i lived in england when i was little.
i just couldn’t remember all the words.
i had always thouught that it was “autumn days when the grass is greener”
not jewelled.
but okay
learning something new.
Used to sing this everyday and primary school. Every time we got to choose the hymn, it was always this that was chose. Good times.
I LOVED this song at primary school assemblies! It’s so simple and is crosses the barriers between religions. Wonderful. Reading the lyrics brought back so many memories! Thank you!
Anyone know where to find the tune for this, tell my kids about it and they really want to hear it, they dont sing hymns at their primary school.
