My Father's Work is Pressing Me
Author: Rev. William T. Sleeper, 1819-1904 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: The waiting field is large and white Lyrics: 1 The waiting field is large and white,
And doth the sickles keen invite;
Yea, many drooping plants I see,
My Father's work is pressing me.
Refrain:
My Father's work is pressing me,
And I must do it faithfully;
The reapers on the field are few,
And I to Jesus must be true.

With willing hearts, and brave and true;
Help must be summoned speedily;
My Father's work is pressing me. [Refrain]
3 The sickles rough and dull with rust,
Lie careless, trodden in the dust;
Sharpened and furbished must they be;
My Father's work is pressing me. [Refrain]

Before the winter's sleet and frost,
I must be garnered faithfully;
My Father's work is pressing me. [Refrain] Topics: Missions Used With Tune: [The waiting field is large and white]
