The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few.
Luke 10:2
Words & Music: Peter P. Bilhorn, 1889 (🔊 pdf nwc).
There is work that we can do,
While the years roll by;
For the laborers are but few,
While the years roll by;
Let us work and watch and pray,
Till the crowning day,
While the years are rolling by.
Refrain
While the years are rolling by,
While the years are rolling by,
There is work that we can do,
While the years are rolling by.
Listen to the Master’s call,
While the years roll by;
Ho! ye reapers, one and all,
While the years roll by;
Do not idly waiting stand,
Heed the Lord’s command,
While the years are rolling by.
Refrain
It may be your joy to win,
While the years roll by;
Someone from the path of sin,
While the years roll by;
To your trust be firm and true,
God depends on you,
While the years are rolling by.
Refrain
