Go Forth in Fields of Harvest

1 Go forth in fields of har­vest,
And strive some sheaves to win,
O do not spend your pre­cious time
In idle­ness and sin!
The hours are swift­ly passing,
O do not longer stand!
Go ga­ther sheaves in­to His gar­ner
With will­ing hand!

Refrain:
Then quick­ly go and la­bor,
In the har­vest field for Je­sus work to­day;
Be idle not a mo­ment,
Quickly go and bear the gold­en sheaves away.

2 Go forth with spir­its loy­al,
And do what­e’er you can;
There’s work for ev­ery child of God
In His all-won­drous plan;
The gold­en grain is wast­ing,
Tho’ la­b’rers are so few—
O quick­ly go and ev­er­more
To Je­sus be true! [Refrain]

3 And when the har­vest’s end­ed,
And time on earth is o’er,
If you have la­bored faith­ful­ly,
There’ll be for you in store
A home of love and beau­ty
That nev­er fades away,
And you shall rest from all your toil
And be blest for aye. [Refrain]
