Gathering for the King

Author: Mrs. N. P. C. Hymnal: Christian Gospel Hymns #104 (1909) First Line: Harvest fields are waving with the ripened grain Refrain First Line: We have heard Thee calling, Lord Lyrics: 1 Harvest fields are waving with the ripened grain, Hear the call, O reaper! shall it be in vain! Listen! ‘tis the Master, calling since the dawn; O, for earnest workers, ere the day is gone. Refrain: We have heard Thee calling, Lord, In the field we’ll glean for Thee; We will join the reapers as they work and sing, Gathering the harvest for the Lord, our King. 2 Plenteous the harvest, laborers are few; You have promis’d, worker, will you not be true? Faithful to thy duty, think not of thine ease; Gather for thy Master precious golden sheaves! [Refrain] 3 Reaper in life’s harvest, hear the clarion call! Hasten at His bidding to the work, away! Rich reward He’ll give thee, trust Him for it all; Daylight soon will vanish, gather while you may. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Harvest fields are waving with the ripened grain]
