Author: William C. Bryant Hymnal: Laudes Domini #522 (1890) Topics: Missions and Growth; Church Missions of; Home Missions Witnessing; Missions; Church Missions of; Home Missions Witnessing; Missions First Line: Look from thy sphere of endless day Lyrics: 1 Look from thy sphere of endless day,
O God of mercy and of might!
In pity look on those who stray,
Benighted in this land of light.
2 In peopled vale, in lonely glen,
In crowded mart, by stream or sea,
How many of the sons of men
Hear not the message sent from thee!
3 Send forth thy heralds, Lord, to call
The thoughtless young, the hardened old,
A scattered, homeless flock till all
Be gathered to thy peaceful fold.
4 Send them thy mighty word to speak,
Till faith shall dawn, and doubt depart,
To awe the bold, to stay the weak,
And bind and heal the broken heart.
5 Then all these wastes, a dreary scene,
That makes us sadden as we gaze,
Shall grow with living waters green,
And lift to heaven the voice of praise.

Author: Mrs. Mary Maxwell Hymnal: Laudes Domini #532 (1890) Topics: Church Missions of; Home Missions Witnessing; Missions; Church Missions of; Home Missions Witnessing; Missions First Line: Saints of God! the dawn is brightening Lyrics: 1 Saints of God! the dawn is brightening,
Token of our coming Lord;
O'er the earth the field is whitening;
Louder rings the Master's word,
"Pray for reapers
In the harvest of the Lord."
2 Now, O Lord! fulfill thy pleasure,
Breathe upon thy chosen band,
And, with pentecostal measure,
Send forth reapers o'er our land,
Faithful reapers,
Gathering sheaves for thy right hand.
3 Broad the shadow of our nation,
Eager millions hither roam;
Lo! they wait for thy salvation;
Come, Lord Jesus! quickly come!
By thy Spirit,
Bring thy ransomed people home.
4 Soon shall end the time of weeping,
Soon the reaping time will come,
Heaven and earth together keeping
God's eternal Harvest Home:
Saints and angels!
Shout the world's great Harvest Home. Languages: English
