Those in positions of church leadership should treat those who are in their care with respect, and likewise the others should respect the leaders whom God has given them.

1. Lord of the harvest, hear 
Thy needy servants’ cry; 
Answer our faith’s effectual prayer 
And all our wants supply. 
 
2. On Thee we humbly wait, 
Our wants are in Thy view. 
The harvest, truly, Lord, is great, 
The laborers are few. 
 
3. Anoint and send forth more 
Into Thy Church abroad 
And let them speak Thy Word of Power 
As workers with their God. 
 
4. Oh, let them spread Thy name, 
Their mission fully prove, 
Thy universal grace proclaim, 
Thine all-redeeming love!
