The Harvest

Author: C. D. Emerson Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.3 #44 (1892) First Line: Behold how the fields are waving Refrain First Line: Forth to the harvest field Lyrics: 1 Behold how the fields are waving, Unmeasured the ripened plain, But few are the faithful gleaners, To gather the golden grain. Refrain: Forth to the harvest field, then, away! There is plenty for all to do, The Lord of the harvest is calling, But the reapers, alas! are few. 2 The world is the field of harvest, And souls must be gathered in; Go glean from the broad, rough highways, The good from the fields of sin. [Refrain] 3 Go work, for the day is passing, Go labor, and hope, and pray; Go gather the priceless jewels, Go seek for the lost today. [Refrain] Topics: Missionary; Work Tune Title: [Behold how the fields are waving]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[Behold how the fields are waving]" in Triumphant Songs No.3 Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
