Lyrics
1 LORD of the harvest, hear
Thy needy servants cry;
Answer our faith's effectual prayer,
And all our wants supply.
2 On thee we humbly wait,
Our wants are in thy view;
The harvest truly, Lord, is great;
The labourers are few.
3 Convert, and send forth more
Into thy church abroad;
And let them speak thy word of power,
As workers with their God.
4 Give the pure gospel word,
The word of general grace;
Thee let them preach, the common Lord,
The Saviour of our race.
5 O let them spread thy name,
Their mission fully prove,
The universal grace proclaim,
Thy all-redeeming love!
