EN 3824 The Earth, O Lord, Is One Wide Field
Luke.10.2
Versi Version 1
1
The earth, O Lord, is one wide field
Of all Thy chosen seed;
The crop prepared its fruit to yield;
The laborers are few indeed.
2
We therefore come before Thee now
With fasting, and with prayer,
Beseeching of Thy love that Thou
Wouldst send more laborers there.
3
Not for our land alone we pray,
Though that above the rest;
The realms and islands far away,
O let them all be blest.
4
Endue the bishops of Thy flock
With wisdom and with grace,
Against false doctrine, like a rock,
To set the heart and face.
5
To all Thy priests Thy truth reveal,
And make Thy judgments clear;
Make Thou Thy deacons full of zeal,
And humble, and sincere.
6
And give their flocks a lowly mind
To hear and to obey;
That each and all may mercy find
At Thine appearing day.
