Forth in the dawn-light, cool and sweet and tender,
While yet the dew-drops tremble on the flowers,
Seeking for lab’rers, One doth meekly wander,
Calling, still calling thro’ the quiet hours.

Brightens the east, and day is coming on;
Go in the freshness of the day’s adorning,
Sure shall your hire be at the set of sun!”Forth while the sun rides higher still in heaven,
Forth while the noon-tide’s fervid radiance glows,
Forth while the shadows lengthen t’ward the even,
Calling for lab’rers, still the Master goes;
“Go, work today! oh, wherefore yet delaying,
Stand ye still idle as the hours glide on?
Go, for the morning waits not for your staying,
Sure shall your hire be at the set of sun!”Lord, we have heard Thee in our youth’s glad morning;
Lord, we still hear Thee in our noonday prime,
Hear Thee, and gladly, ease and pleasure scorning,
Gird us for service, lowly yet sublime;
Take us, ourselves to Thee we now surrender,
Take us, and use us till the day is done,
Gather us then in Thy embraces tender,
Such let our hire be at the set of sun!Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Gather in the sheaves.Refrain

Sweetest music breathes:

Hear the echoes falling;

Gather in the sheaves.When the days are brightest,
When our hearts are lightest,
When the lovely summer
Fairest beauty weaves.

In the twilight gleaming,
Go and help the reapers
Gather in the sheaves.Refrain

Earnest, faithful labor
Greatest joy receives.

Thanks for the sunshine, the dew, and the rain;

The sky is unclouded and soft is the wind;
The bright sheaves are waving and ready to bind.Refrain

Tho’ great is the harvest, the toilers are few;
We pray that to others His grace He may give,
To work and be faithful as long as they live.Refrain

For reapers more to come?

Why sit ye idle, dumb?Thrust in your sharpened sickle,

And shall He call in vain?
Shall sheaves lie there ungathered,
And waste upon the plain?Mount up the heights of wisdom,

In service of thy Lord,

Shall be thy just reward.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Go forth beneath His sky.Where prophets’ word, and martyrs’ blood,
And prayers of saints were sown,

Would reap where they have strown.O Thou Whose call our hearts has stirred,
To do Thy will we come;

Ripe and ready for the willing gleaner’s hand,

In the breezes gently waving to and fro,
Rouse ye, O sleepers!Ye are needed as reapers!

In the crown you hope to wear in yonder world of light.
Seek the gems immortal that are precious in His sight!

Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Onward goes the pilgrim band,
Singing songs of expectation,
Marching to the promised land.
Clear before us through the darkness
Gleams and burns the guiding light:
Brother clasps the hand of brother,
Stepping fearless through the night.One the light of God’s own presence,
O’er His ransomed people shed,
Chasing far the gloom and terror,
Brightening all the path we tread:
One the object of our journey,
One the faith which never tires,
One the earnest looking forward,
One the hope our God inspires.One the strain that lips of thousands
Lift as from the heart of one;
One the conflict, one the peril
One the march in God begun:
One the gladness of rejoicing
On the far eternal shore,
Where the one almighty Father
Reigns in love for evermore.Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,
Onward, with the cross our aid!
Bear its shame, and fight its battle,
Till we rest beneath its shade.
Soon shall come the great awaking,
Soon the rending of the tomb;
Then the scattering of all shadows,
And the end of toil and gloom.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Mat 9:37] Your Mission
If you cannot, on the ocean, sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest billows, laughing at the storms you meet,
You can stand among the sailors, anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend a hand to help them, as they launch their boats away.If you are too weak to journey up the mountain steep and high,
You can stand within the valley, while the multitudes go by;
You can chant in happy measure, as they slowly pass along;
Though they may forget the singer, they will not forget the song.If you have not gold and silver ever ready to command;
If you cannot toward the needy reach an ever open hand;
You can visit the afflicted, o’er the erring you can weep;
You can be a true disciple, sitting at the Savior’s feet.If you cannot, in the conflict prove, yourself a soldier true,
If, where fire and smoke are thickest, there’s no work for you to do;
When the battlefield is silent, you can go with careful tread,
You can bear away the wounded, you can cover up the dead.If you cannot, in the harvest, gather up the richest sheaves,
Many a grain both ripe and golden oft the careless reaper leaves;
Go and glean among the briars growing rank against the wall,
For it may be that their shadow hides the heaviest wheat of all.Do not, then, stand idly waiting, for some greater work to do;
Fortune is a lazy goddess, she will never come to you.
Go and toil in any vineyard, do not fear to do or dare,
If you want a field of labor, you can find it anywhere.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

To further conquests go!The vineyard of the Lord
Before His laborers lies;
And lo! we see the vast reward
Which waits us in the skies.O let our heart and mind
Continually ascend,
That haven of repose to find,
Where all our labors end.When all our toils are o’er,
Our suffering and our pain!
Who meet on that eternal shore
Shall never part again.O happy, happy place,
Where saints and angels meet;
There we shall see each other’s face,
And all our brethren greet.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

From woman’s grief, man’s burdened toil,
From famished souls, from sorrow’s stress,

Still holds the freshness of Your grace;
Yet long these multitudes to view
The sweet compassion of Your face.O Master, from the mountainside
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain;

While the Christian sleepeth.Watch against the devil’s snares lest asleep he find thee;
For indeed no pains he spares to deceive and blind thee.
Satan’s prey oft are they who secure are sleeping
And no watch are keeping.Watch! Let not the wicked world with its power defeat thee.
Watch lest with her pomp unfurled she betray and cheat thee.
Watch and see lest there be faithless friends to charm thee,
Who but seek to harm thee.Watch against thyself, my soul, lest with grace thou trifle;
Let not self thy thoughts control nor God’s mercy stifle.
Pride and sin lurk within all thy hopes to scatter;
Heed not when they flatter.But while watching, also pray to the Lord unceasing,
He will free thee, be thy Stay, strength and faith increasing.

From the will to serve Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
