[Holy Ghost, regard our prayers]
Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest
that He will send forth labourers into His harvest.
Matthew ix. 38.
So they being sent forth by the Holy Ghost.
Acts xiii. 4.
Holy Ghost, regard our prayers,
Third of the glorious three,
Send forth faithful labourers
To gather souls for Thee:
Sovereign, everlasting Lord,
The harvest is entirely Thine,
Thine the preachers of the word,
The messengers Divine.
Third of the glorious three,
Send forth faithful labourers

Sovereign, everlasting Lord,
The harvest is entirely Thine,
Thine the preachers of the word,
The messengers Divine.
Move their hearts, and more stir up
Salvation to proclaim,
Bold on every mountain-top
To shout in Jesus' name,
Tidings of great joy to tell,
Of peace obtain'd, and sin forgiven;
Then, Thy word of grace to seal,
O God, come down from heaven.
