With the waves of ripened grain;
Far and near their gold is gleaming
O’er the sunny slope and plain.
Refrain:
Lord of harvest, send forth reapers;
Hear us, Lord, to Thee we cry;
Send them now the sheaves to gather,
Ere the harvest time pass by.
2 Send them forth with morn’s first beaming,
Send them in the noontide’s glare;
When the sun’s last rays are gleaming,
Bid them gather everywhere. [Refrain]
3 Thou whom Christ the Lord is sending,
Gather now the sheaves of gold;
Heavenward then at evening wending,
Thou shalt come with joy untold. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: CLEMM
