Who Will Help?

By Jessie S. Belknap

JESSIE S. BELKNAP
HARK! do you hear the calls for help Coming from across the sea? In the darkness souls are groping; Who will lead them, Lord, to thee?
O that I could paint the picture So you all could understand How the missionaries labor Far away in foreign land!
Hard they’re working, and they’re praying, “Father, may the ones at home Help us gather sheaves for heaven; Leave, O, leave us not alone!”
Men and means are sadly needed In our little mission band; Lo, the harvest white is waiting — Who will lend a helping hand?
Will you help while yet time lingers, Help us while it yet is day? Soon the summer will be ended, And the sickles put away.
Work and pray, O brother, sister, That the message loud may ring Till the honest all are gathered From this world of death and sin!
Then when our life’s work is over, May we meet in that bright home With the sheaves that we have garnered,— Meet around the great white throne.
Camas, Wash.
