1 Stand no longer idle, heed the call;
Go to work for Jesus, one and all;
Fields are waiting for your hands today;
Take up your sickles and speed away.
Refrain:
Go into the field, gather in the yield;
Labor for the Lord, gain the great reward;
Reapers, the hours are speeding,
Jesus your help is needing;
Shall He call in vain?
Go into the field, reap the golden yield;
Heed His loving plea, true to Jesus be;
Love for the Master showing,
Work while the sun is glowing;
Gather now the grain.
2 There to shield and help you He will be;
Fruitage of your labors you shall see;
His dear voice shall cheer you thru the day;
Singing a carol, O speed away. [Refrain]
3 Jesus will reward for what you do;
Life’s fair crown of glory give to you;
Perfect rest when ends life’s little day;
Reapers, get ready and speed away. [Refrain]
