Author: Ruth Harmon Hymnal: Joyful Lays #59 (1884) First Line: Awake! for the Master is calling Lyrics: 1 Awake! for the Master is calling,
Arise, and to labor away;
Already the morning is breaking.
Go work in the vineyard today;
No time to be idle or slumber;
Go forth, for the workers are few;
O Christian, the Master is calling,
The Master is calling for you.
2 Go train up the vines that are lying
Where weeds of deep sorrow have grown;
Go scatter the dew of affection
Where discord and strife have been sown;
No time to be idle or slumber;
Go forth, for the workers are few;
Back-slider, return to your duty,
The Master is calling for you.
3 Hark, hear ye the song of the reapers?
Go join in the soul cheering strain;
Make haste, for the summer is waning,
Go work in the vineyard again;
No time to be idle or slumber;
Go forth, for the workers are few;
O sinner there’s room in the vineyard,
The Master is calling for you. Scripture: Matthew 21:28 Languages: English Tune Title: [Awake! for the Master is calling]

Samuel Alman
1844 - 1911 Person Name: Rev. Samuel Alman Composer of "[Awake! for the Master is calling]" in Joyful Lays Samuel Alman was born February 6, 1844 in Wales. He enlisted in the United States Navy in 1854 as an apprentice and served until 1868. He was at the Washington Navy Yard when Lincoln was shot and was one of the few men who knew of the final disposition of J. Wilkes Booth's body, but he was sworn to secrecy. At one time he was commander-in-chief of the National Association of Naval Veterans, holding the title of Admiral. He was also chaplain of the G.A.R. and the Farragut Association of Naval Veterans. After two years of service with the United States Government, he resigned and became an evangelist, taking charge of the mission that later became Emmanuel Baptist Church in Manhattan. He was ordained in the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church in 1871 and continued serving as pastor of Emmanuel Baptist church until 1899. He wrote many hymns and compiled two hymnals. He died in June 12, 1911, in New York.
