The Time of Harvest
Author: Mrs. C. S. Hoover Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: List, across the ocean comes the call today Refrain First Line: Hearken to their pleading Lyrics: 1 List! across the ocean comes the call today,
Weary souls are dying; help them while you may;
Take to them the gospel, lead them to the King,
Make the soul sin darkness to arise and sing.
Refrain:
Hearken to their pleading, come and work today,
Fields are ripe and waiting, garner while you may;
Win them for the Master ere the daylight dies,
Tell them of the home prepared beyond the skies.
Hearken to their pleading, come and work today,
Fields are ripe and waiting, garner while you may.
Point to them the Master ere the daylight dies,
Tell them of their home prepared beyond the skies.
2 There is need of workers, lo! the fields are white;
But the clouds hang o’er them; who will take the light?
Hark! the Lord is calling for the lab’rer true,
In the time of harvest He hath need of you. [Refrain]
3 Swift the days are flying, win your precious store,
Ere the sheaves are gathered and the harvest o’er.
Hasten to the harvest, witness for the Lord,
Gladly spread the tidings of His love outpoured. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [List, across the ocean comes the call today]

Nearing the Homeland Shore
Author: James Rowe Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The ocean of life I am crossing Refrain First Line: I'm nearing, nearing, nearing the homeland Lyrics: 1 The ocean of life I am crossing,
And round me the billows roar;
My boat on the rough waves is tossing,
But I’m nearing the homeland shore.
Refrain:
I’m nearing, nearing,
Nearing the homeland shore;
Tho’ waves rise and roll, there is joy in my soul,
I’m nearing the homeland shore.
2 My voyage has often been dreary,
And often my heart was sore,
I’ve often been troubled and weary,
But I’m nearing the homeland shore. [Refrain]
3 The Saviour—my pilot—has taught me
To trust in him more and more,
For safe thro’ all storm he has brought me,
And I’m nearing the homeland home. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [The ocean of life I am crossing]

Voyaging
Author: Paulina Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: This life is an ocean, and each has his bark Refrain First Line: Voyaging, voyaging over the foam Lyrics: 1 This life is an ocean, and each has his bark,
We all have a compass to guide in the dark;
We have a bright star eighteen centuries old,
We have a strong anchor more precious than gold.
Refrain:
Voyaging, voyaging over the foam,
Oh, may we all anchor in heaven our home.
2 This one has forgotten his watch upon deck,
And there is his bark ‘mid the breakers a wreck;
This one without chart of the winds is the sport,
Fast drifting away from the heavenly port. [Refrain]
3 There is the safe haven a little way on,
Keep steady the helm till the harbor is won;
Through all the night long though the billows have roared,
We’ve known not a fear for the Pilot’s on board. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [This life is an ocean, and each has his bark]

Sharon’s Rose
Author: Alice Jean Cleator Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Over the ocean In silence grows Refrain First Line: Sharon's sweet roses Bring to us word Lyrics: 1 Over the ocean
In silence grows
Fragrant and lovely
Sharon’s sweet rose;
Clear laughing waters
Murmuring by,
Mirror its beauty
And the blue sky.
Refrain:
Sharon’s sweet roses
Bring to us word
Of One most lovely,
Jesus our Lord.
Fairer than roses
Or lilies rare,
He is the fairest
Of all the fair.
2 O, of all roses
This is the queen
But oft its beauty
Is all unseen.
Yet in its gladness
Still it would smile
Living in sweetness
Life’s little while. [Refrain]
3 Child, there’s a lesson
Told unto thee
By this sweet blossom
Over the sea;
With unassuming
And lovely grace
Make life the brighter
With thy sweet face. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Over the ocean In silence grows]

Thou Canst Still the Tempest
Author: William H. Gardner Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Out on the ocean the mad billows toss Lyrics: 1 Out on the ocean the mad billows toss,

Watch o’er the seamen, O Father in Heav’n,
Bring them in safety to loved ones once more.
Refrain:
Thou canst still the tempest,
With a single word.
Winds and waves obey Thee,
Thou Almighty God!
2 Many a woman is kneeling in pray’r,
Pleading Thy care for some storm-beaten one.
Hear them, O Father, and comfort their heats,
May they in trust, cry, “Thy will, Lord, be done!” [Refrain]
3 God of the ocean and God of the land,
Still Thou the tempests that roar in each heart.
Bring us, O Father, the sunshine of peace,
And from Thy love may we never depart! [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Out on the ocean the mad billows toss]
Thou Canst Still the Tempest
