Author: C. H. M. Hymnal: The Old Story in Song #78 (1906) First Line: Wanted, wanted, loyal hearts are wanted Refrain First Line: Out into the harvest field and labor while you may Lyrics: 1 Wanted, wanted, loyal hearts are wanted,
Faithful in the service of our Lord and King;
Hearts with true love burning,
Hearts o’er sinners yearning,
Seeking evermore the lost ones back to bring.
Refrain:
Out into the harvest field and labor while you may,
Out into the harvest field, work while ‘tis call’d today;
Ye loyal hearts and true, and lab’rers not a few,
Wanted, wanted, the Lord hath need of you.
2 Wanted, wanted, tongues of fire are wanted,
Consecrated lips with Pentecost aflame;
Free to tell the story
Of his pow’r and glory,
Glad to go a full salvation to proclaim. [Refrain]
3 Wanted, wanted, helping hands are wanted,
Willing hands to labor anytime or where;
Fields with harvest bending,
God his reapers sending,
Who will go the precious golden sheaves to bear. [Refrain]
4 Wanted, wanted, holy lives are wanted,
Showing unto sinners Jesus pow’r to save;
Freed from condemnation,
Kept by his salvation,
Spent in service here the lives he freely gave. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Wanted, wanted, loyal hearts are wanted]
