Reapers Are Needed (Gabriel)

Author: Charles H. Gabriel Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5731 First Line: Standing in the market places all the season through Refrain First Line: Lift thine eyes and look upon the fields that stand Lyrics: 1. Standing in the market places all the season through, Idly saying, Lord, is there no work that I can do? O how many loiter, while the Master calls anew— Reapers! reapers! Who will work today? Refrain Lift thine eyes and look upon the fields that stand Ripe and ready for the willing gleaner’s hand, Rouse ye, O sleepers! Ye are needed as reapers! Who will be the first to answer, Master, here am I. Far and wide the ripened grain is bending low, In the breezes gently waving to and fro, Rouse ye, O sleepers! Ye are needed as reapers! And the golden harvest days are swiftly passing by. 2. Ev’ry sheaf you gather will become a jewel bright In the crown you hope to wear in yonder world of light. Seek the gems immortal that are precious in His sight! Reapers! reapers! Who will work today? [Refrain] 3. Morning hours are passing, and the ev’ning follows fast; Soon the time of reaping will forevermore be past. Empty handed to the Master will you go at last? Reapers! reapers! Who will work today? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Standing in the market places all the season through]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Person Name: Charles H. Gabriel Author of "Reapers Are Needed (Gabriel)" in The Cyber Hymnal Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
