"The Laborers are few"

Author: D. March Hymnal: Laudes Domini #483 (1890) Topics: Home Missions Witnessing; Missions; Home Missions Witnessing; Missions First Line: Hark! the voice of Jesus calling Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, Who will go and work to-day? Fields are white, the harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away? Loud and long the Master calleth, Rich reward he offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I, O Lord, send me." 2 If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door; If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say he died for all. 3 While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you, Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do!" Gladly take the task he gives you, Let his work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, "Here am I, O Lord, send me." Languages: English Tune Title: MISSION SONG

Her God hath heard her mourning voice, And comes to exalt his power. 2 Her dust and ruins that remain Are precious in our eyes; Those ruins shall be built again, And all that dust shall rise. 3 The Lord will raise Jerusalem, And stand in glory there; Nations shall bow before his name, And kings attend with fear. 4 He sits a sovereign on his throne, With pity in his eyes, He hears the dying prisoners' groan, And sees their sighs arise. 5 He frees the souls condemned to death; Nor, when his saints complain, Shall it be said that praying breath Was ever spent in vain.

Pursue thine onward way; Flow thou to every nation, Nor in thy richness stay: Stay not till all the lowly Triumphant reach their home: Stay not till all the holy Proclaim "The Lord is come!"
