Author: R. A. Evilsizer Hymnal: The Christian Hymnary #885 (1972) Meter: 8.8.4.5.8 with refrain Refrain First Line: The lab'rers are few Lyrics: 1 The time of the harvest is nigh,
All ripened the waiting fields lie;
The lab'rers are few,
Christ calleth for you
To glean for his garner on high.
Refrain:
The lab'rers ae few;
Christ calleth for you;
Then hasten away,
The Lord of the harvest obey.
2 The Lord of the harvest needs you—
There's work that you only can do;
Then do not delay,
But hasten away
And glean where the toilers are few. [Refrain]
3 Oh, brother, the labor is blest,
And after the toil cometh rest;
Your Saviour and Lord
Will richly reward,
If you will but heed his request. [Refrain] Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Christian Commission Spreading the Gospel Scripture: Luke 10:2 Languages: English Tune Title: THE LABORERS ARE FEW
