Lift your eyes, the field of harvest scan;
Jesus calls, but lo! the faithful ones are few,
Are you doing all the good you can?

Doing good, doing good,
Walking in the gospel’s blessed way;
Doing good, doing good,
Working for the Master as you may.

Gathered by the dear Redeemer’s plan;
See them dying out upon the wastes of sin!
Are you doing all the good you can? [Refrain]

Strike asunder Satan’s galling ban,
Answer quickly—“Jesus, Master, here am I!”

Chas. H. Gabriel

=============
For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades.
