<p>O still in accents sweet and strong<br>
Sounds forth the ancient word,<br>
&#8220;More reapers for white harvest fields,<br>
More laborers for the Lord.&#8221;</p>
<p>We hear the call; in dreams no more<br>
In selfish ease we lie,<br>
But, girded for our Father&#8217;s work,<br>
Go forth beneath His sky.</p>
<p>Where prophets&#8217; word, and martyrs&#8217; blood,<br>
And prayers of saints were sown,<br>
We, to their labors entering in,<br>
Would reap where they have strown.</p>
<p>O Thou Whose call our hearts has stirred,<br>
To do Thy will we come;<br>
Thrust in our sickles at Thy Word,<br>
And bear our harvest home.</p>
