To the Field

Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Glad Tidings in Song #79 (1921) First Line: There is work for all to do Refrain First Line: To the field, march away with the Savior today Lyrics: 1 There is work for all to do, Then away, ye reapers true, To the field, to the field; ‘Tis the harvest Lord’s command, Help the needs on ev’ry hand,— To the field, to the field. Refrain: To the field march away with the Savior today, To your promise be true, ev’ry order obey; Go and gather the grain for the Lord while you may, To the field, to the field. 2 Soon the shades of night will fall, Ending labor-time for all,— To the field, to the field; While the sunshine gilds the earth, To your Master prove your worth,— To the field, to the field. [Refrain] 3 Do not say, “Some other day;” With your sickle speed away To the field, to the field; Then when light of earth grows dim You will have some sheaves for Him; To the field, to the field. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is work for all to do]
