Among all the children of men

O ye that embark in the service of God

Give heart, mind and strength unto him, 

    D7            G          C           Em 
For prophets have spoken and angels have come

to lift the world from sin,

verse 2: 

      D         C2           Am                G 
Those marvelous Saints who embraced this great work

and shared it in lands far and near, 

    Am             D                G               Em 
Who gave all their heart, mind, and strength to the Lord

   Am    Em C6    C  D 
of souls prepared to hear 

   F#        Bm            A7     D 
Of knowledge sure, born of humble heart,

and love that banished fear.

and thrust in our sickle with might,

If we will embark in the service of God 

    D          A7              D 
and harvest in fields that are white,
