"Reapin' the Reapers"


"And the gospel must first be published among all nations."
(Mark 13:10)


It doesn't happen only once, you know, this sowing and reaping
occurs over and over from soul to soul
It's winning one to win another to reach the world for Jesus Christ,
and fulfill the timed heavenly roll

 
They're just waiting to be harvested, the lonely, hungry, and lost
in this shaky, rockin' and reelin' world
The hurting and hopeless are waiting for they know not what,
 but the gospel is their answer, to be unfurled

 
From seed to seed, the harvest is planted and reaped, as the clock
ticks down the moments to the end
It's like an hourglass of sand, this gathering of sheep in the fold
 of the Saints to be, preparing to ascend

 
Come home, ye strays of the fold, for you're the bride, and the  
 groom still holds you in His soul
Let not the cares of this life and the pleasures of the world, leave
you behind, the judgment to take its toll

 
We must all be reapers if we belong to the King; He's called us to 
 be His sickle, the harvest to bring
His arms are underneath the lost and the perishing; He longs for
their salvation, that to His heart they'll cling

 
The reapers must be strong in this hour of self and greed, for
for the enemy is busy, pouring out unbelief
All the more we should work faster and gather them quickly, so 
they'll be tuned to the trumpet, ready for the thief

 

Can we miss even one in our quest to reap the fields, for that one 
 may win millions, their gifts so concealed
They may be a Paul, just waiting for conversion, a destiny hidden
in the soul, and waiting to be revealed

 
His hands are open wide, not one to be forsaken; He knows what's 
 coming, and He longs for their escape
He's the Creator; if we just bring them to Him; He knows how to
mold them, and from the dust to reshape

 
To Jesus, each soul is so precious; we belong to Him in His eyes,
  and we're all considered "keepers"
As we move from brother to brother and sister to sister, we're
just planting and sowing, "Reapin' the Reapers."
