103. Always On Duty

1 Always on duty for Jesus the King,
Serving with voice and with heart,
Out in the highways or byways so dim,
Earnestly doing our part.

Chorus:
Always on duty, serving faithfully,
Always on duty, blessed Lord, for thee;
Called by thy mercy, we will loyal be,
Always on duty, blessed Lord, for thee.

2 Always on duty wherever we go,
Claiming his promises true,
Loyal when pleasures our pathway surround,
Wiling to dare and to do. [Chorus]

3 Always on duty a Christian must be,
Ready his colors to show,
patiently waiting the Master’s command,
Glad in his footsteps to go. [Chorus]
