WA, EYIN OLOPE WA

-
Words: Henry Alford, Psalms and Hymns, 1844

Wa, eyin olope wa,
Gbe orin ikore ga:
Ire gbogbo ti wole
Kotutu oye to de:
Olorun Eleda wa
Lo ti pese faini wa
Wa ka rele Oloru
Gbe orin ikore ga.

Oko Olorun laye,
Lati so eso iyin Re:
Alikama at'epo
N dagba faro tab'ayo
Ehu na, ipe tele,
Siri oka, nikehin;
Oluwa 'kore, mu wa
Je eso rere fun O.

Nitori Olorun wa n bo
Yo si kore Re sile:
On o gbon gbogbo panti
Kuro loko Re n'jo na;
Yo fase fawon Angel'
Lati gba epo sina,
Lati ko alikama
Si aba Re titi lai.

Beeni, ma wa, Oluwa
Sikore ikehin;
Ko awon eniyan Re jo
Kuro lese ataro:
So won di mimo lailai
Ki won le ma ba O gbe:
Wa t'Iwo t'Angeli Re
Gbe orin ikore ga.br /> 		Come, ye thankful people, come, raise the song of harvest home;
All is safely gathered in, ere the winter storms begin.
God our Maker doth provide for our wants to be supplied;
Come to God’s own temple, come, raise the song of harvest home.

All the world is God’s own field, fruit unto His praise to yield;
Wheat and tares together sown unto joy or sorrow grown.
First the blade and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear;
Lord of harvest, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be.

For the Lord our God shall come, and shall take His harvest home;
From His field shall in that day all offenses purge away,
Giving angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast;
But the fruitful ears to store in His garner evermore.

Even so, Lord, quickly come, bring Thy final harvest home;
Gather Thou Thy people in, free from sorrow, free from sin,
There, forever purified, in Thy garner to abide;
Come, with all Thine angels come, raise the glorious harvest home.

    I remember this hymn, it was taught us at the boarding house. The words of gladsome gratitude to our Heavenly Father. The hymns were the silent kerygmatic missionaries that that broke through my stony heart until I met Christ and understood the pain He bore to set Adam's free. Today I walk with the King 👑
