In the harvest of the Lord.

With its power to release;

Of the coming Prince of Peace. [Refrain]

Men are tempted to despair;
Point them to the cross of Jesus,
They will find deliverance there. [Refrain]

With his heavy load is found,
Bid him look away to Jesus,
Hope and strength in Him abound. [Refrain]

And we lay our trophies down,
We will join the heavenly chorus,
And our Master, victor crown. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LOWER LIGHTS Text Sources: Evangelical Theological Seminary Class Hymn, 1900
