VERSE 2
We ourselves are God’s own field, Fruit unto His praise to yield; Wheat and tares together sown, Unto joy or sorrow grown. First the blade, and then the ear, Then the full corn shall appear; Lord of harvest, grant that we Wholesome grain and pure may be.
VERSE 3
For the Lord our God shall come, And shall take His harvest home; From His field shall purge away All that doth offend that day. Give His angels charge at last In the fire the tares to cast; But the fruitful ears to store In His garner evermore.
VERSE 4
Even so, Lord, quickly come, Bring Thy final harvest home; Gather Thou Thy people in, Free from sorrow, free from sin. There, forever purified, In Thy presence to abide; Come, with all Thine angels, come, Raise the glorious harvest home.
