Would You Stand Among The Toilers
Would you stand among the toilers,
When the harvest all is in?
For the blessed Lord and Master,
You must here the work begin.
Refrain:
When the harvest all is in,
When the harvest all is in,
What a meeting of the reapers,
What a shouting of hosannas,
When the harvest all is in.
Would you join the song of gladness,
When the harvest all is in?
You must be a faithful gleaner
In the haunts of woe and sin. [Refrain]
Would you have some sheaves to offer,
When the harvest all is in?
From the husks of want and folly,
Strive the prodigals to win. [Refrain]
Would you have a crown eternal,
When the harvest all is in?
Seek to swell the heav’nly garner,
Ere it be too late to glean. [Refrain]
