1 verse lord of the living harvest that whitens oer
the plain where angels soon shall gather
their sheaves of golden grain accept these
hands of labor these hearts to trust and love
and deign with them to hasten thy kingdom above
2nd verse as with them god the father be them God the
son content to bear the burden of weary days
for thee to ask no other wages when thou shall
call them home than to have shared the travail
which makes thy kingdom come .
verse 3 be with them God the father be with them God
the son and God the holy spirit most blessed
three in one make them thy faithful servants
thee rightly to adore and fill them thy fulness
both now and evermore amen .
* Written & Sung By Samuel S Wesley 1864 *
