| Text: | Lord of the harvest, hear |
| Author: | Charles Wesley |
| Tune: | ST. THOMAS |
| Composer: | George F. Handel |
1 Lord of the harvest, hear
Thy needy servants' cry;
Answer our faith's effectual prayer,
And all our wants supply.
2 On thee we humbly wait;
Our wants are in thy view;
The harvest, truly, Lord, is great,
The laborers are few.
3 Convert and send forth more,
To spread thy truth abroad;
And let them speak thy word of power,
As workers with their God.
4 O let them spread thy name,
Their mission fully prove;
Thy universal grace proclaim,
Thine all redeeming love.
