Hymn 168 – THE harvest of the world is almost ripe | C&S English Hymnary

1. THE harvest of the world is almost ripe, The Harvester is almost come; To gather the wheat into the barn, The chaff we shall burn with fire. Chorus: Cherubim and Seraphim, People of the world, get ready for Jesus, To enter this ark of salvation, Whoever lingers or delays Will lose their soul; Will lose their soul (2ce) Whoever lingers or delays, Will lose their soul. 2. You people of the world, make haste, The Day of the Lord is drawing near; When the last trumpet shall sound, And the Day of Judgment shall arrive. 3. The Kingdom of heaven is very near, O people of the world, do not delay; Flowers are fading, plants are withering, Yet mankind fails to take heed. 4. Brother, Sister, This is a great call unto you; Bestir yourself to be counted as wheat, Before that time passes away. 5. The door is open to everyone, To enter this ark of salvation; Let no one be left behind, The Day of the Savior has come. 6. Glory be to the God of the Seraphim, Who has called us into this fold; Glory be to the God of the Cherubim, Glory be to the Trinity. AMEN
