MHB 793 – LORD of the living harvest

Methodist-Hymns-793

1: LORD of the living harvest
That whitens o’er the plain,
Where angels soon shall gather
Their sheaves of golden grain,
Accept these hands to labor,
These hearts to trust and love,
And deign with them to hasten
Thy  kingdom from above.

2: As laborers in Thy vineyard,
Lord, send them out to be,
Content to bear the burden
Of weary days for Thee.
Constant to ask no wages
When Thou shalt call them home,
But to have shared the travail
Which makes Thy kingdom come.

3:  Be with them, God the Father,
Be with them, God the Son,
And God the Holy Spirit,
Eternal Three in One!
Make them a royal priesthood,
Thee rightly to adore
And fill them with Thy fullness Now and evermore.

Amen.
