SECTION B: THE HARVEST

Hymn No. 16:

During the Ox-plow Stage

Origin: DSDA West Indies Division

Rod Quotation: TN6:40.1

Tune: New

♦-1-♦
After the sealing, there’ll be a delay,
After the delay, the six angels will slay;
After the slaughter, there’ll be an outpouring,
Following this outpouring, the oxen will start plowing.

♦-Refrain-♦
During the Ox-plow stage, when, at this appointed time,
In Laodicea the servants preach truth so sublime,
Thousands will freely embrace the Truth,
To join themselves to the vanguard,
Thousands will freely embrace the Truth,
The number completed, all will be glad.

♦-2-♦
The mattock like work, will so soon gain speed,
Into ox-plow stage, ‘twill emerge as decreed,
The ground broken up, the vineyard restored,
All the believers, then will be of one accord.

♦-3-♦
Lord grant me a chance, in order to march,
With the soldiers brave, who’ll go to mother church,
After the five months, together we’ll sing,
The church is reclaimed, all glory unto the King!

TN6:40.1; Series page: 260:
Though the work, moreover is to have a small hard, mattock-like beginning it will gain speed and will emerge from the mattock stage into the ox-plow stage — the stage which will see all the believers of Present Truth (except the “lesser cattle”) unitedly go forth to dig or plow other “hills” until all the thorns and briers shall be uprooted throughout the land, the ground broken up, and the vineyard restored even beyond its original excellency. Thus reclaimed, it will be a place not only “for the sending forth of oxen,” missionaries, but also for the “Treading of Lesser Cattle.”
