Gather the Grain (EN 2921)

EN 2921 Gather the Grain

Matt.9.37

Versi Version 1

1

O list to the music that floats on the air,

The valleys are smiling, the reapers are there;

The summer rewards us with plenty again;

Then thrust in the sickle and gather the grain.

Gather the grain, gather the grain;

Thanks for the sunshine, the dew, and the rain;

Sunshine is yielding its harvest again,

Then thrust in the sickle and gather the grain.

2

O why should we tarry from labor today?

The reapers are calling, and we must away;

The sky is unclouded and soft is the wind;

The bright sheaves are waving and ready to bind.

3

We ask of the Master, our strength to renew,

Tho’ great is the harvest, the toilers are few;

We pray that to others His grace He may give,

To work and be faithful as long as they live.

4

The harvest is passing, to greet us no more,

The summer is ending, and soon will be o’er;

Our moments neglected, return not again—

Now thrust in the sickle and gather the grain.
