Latter-Day Saints' Sunday School Hymn Book: The Word Companion of the Deseret Sunday School Song Book,
5th Edition, 1903.No. 21 (page 30)VERSE 1Waiting for the reapers' sickles,Waves the whitened harvest field;Harbingers of love and mercy,Forward go and bind the sheaves.Go, ye lab'rers, bold with courage, [laborers]Reap the golden-headed grain --Ripened fields all waiting, waiting,Since the Son of God was slain.CHORUSSeize the torch, the torch, and wave it;Zion's heralds loud proclaim;Hallelujah! swell the chorus,Jesus Christ our Lord shall reign.VERSE 2Waiting for the morrow's dawning,Work ye while 'tis called today,Lo, the harvest time now coming,Jesus calls, make no delay.Gather in the spacious garnerSeed-time harvest ushers in;Wake the song, millennial gloryDawns upon a world of sin.
(Sorry I couldn't get the hymn in any bigger)
(K-Mom here: I looked for this song on You Tube and couldn't find it. If anybody hears a "calling" and can find this hymn on You Tube, or even better, perform it in English or Japanese, and upload it, I'd love it! I can fax it full size /the Japanese version/ since I have a paper copy. Just email me at the email from which you get your weekly letter from me.)
