To the Lord who rules the har­vest,
To the Lord who rules the har­vest,
start
After the sands of thy life have all run,
For so the word of truth de­clares:
Who’ll be sow­ing pre­cious gold­en grain?
Then away to the work I will go
The gold­en har­vest waits to­day,
Then scat­ter seeds of kind­ness,
The sow­er scat­ters pre­cious grain
With us when we toil in sad­ness,
And what are you do­ing to­day?
So lov­ing­ly keep­ing, keep­ing,
And what are you do­ing to­day?
The grain is fall­ing fast,
And in Je­sus’ keep­ing,
Be earnest, my bro­thers, in word and in deed,
And soon comes the night,
The har­vest of the world’s at hand,
Only a little while,

reap­ing

What a reap­ing, reap­ing,
What a reap­ing, reap­ing,
Idle they nev­er stand;
Sowing, sow­ing, sow­ing in Sa­tan’s might;
And an­gels shout the har­vest home.
Sowing, reap­ing gold­en grain?
And back from the har­vest with beau­ti­ful sheaves
And we should all be reap­ing.
Strange we nev­er prize the mu­sic
Life’s spring­time is its sow­ing time,
Telling us that in the fu­ture
Or bear­ing the sheaves away?
For gar­ners built above.
Or bear­ing the sheaves away?
Forever will be past.
Keep trust­ing in His word.
And thus in the vine­yard, with Je­sus to lead,
The reap­ers are few for the la­bor,
Stay not to wait re­peat­ed call;
Only a little while,
