Hymn 729

Ho, reapers in the whitened harvest

1

Ho, reapers in the whitened harvest

oft, feeble, faint, and few:

Come, wait upon the blessed master,

Our strength he will renew.

CHORUS

For they that wait upon the Lord

Shall renew their strength;

They shall mount up with wings,

They shall mount up with wings

As eagles

They shall run and not be weary

They shall walk and not faint;

They shall run and not be weary

They shall walk and not faint;

They shall run and not be weary

Shall walk and not faint.

2

Too oft a weary and discouraged,

We pour a sad complaint;

Believing in a living Saviour,

Why should we ever faint?

3

Rejoice! For he is with us always,

Lo, even to the end!

Look up! Take courage and go forward

All needed grace He’ll send!
