The Missionary.

THE MASTER SAYS, GO.

Go, work in my vineyard—the Master says, go— The fruitage is glinting with rich, ruddy glow; The sun of the morning is now in the west, The day's early gleaners are fainting for rest.
Oh! heed now the calling; up, while it is day; Perhaps in life's dawning thy strength may decay, Then give unto Jesus the dew of thy youth, And seek through his mercy the sunlight of truth.
Oh! haste to the vineyard; the Master's own voice Has called you to duty; he'll bid you rejoice; Then safe in his kingdom, on Heaven's bright shore, The fruitage is gathered, and labor is o'er.
Forever in glory the faithful shall sing, Our day's work was given to Jesus our King; And through the rich fullness of faith in his love, The vintage is gathered, and garnered above. —Royal Diadem.
