Representative Text

The Master is calling, “Go labor today,
The fields for the harvest are white;
No longer delay, or the bright golden grain
Will be lost in the gathering night.

Chorus:
Go work in His vineyard today;
For wages He offers to pay.
The Lord of the harvest is earnestly pleading,
Go work in His vineyard today.

The field is the world, will you take it for Christ?
‘Tis lying in darkness and woe.
‘Tis waiting the sound of the life-giving word.
To the sad and distressed will you go?

Their lives are so weary, they know not God’s love;
Nor how His dear Son died for all.
Oh, take them the message of life and of truth;
That they, too, may respond to His call.
