Triumphant Songs No.3 ‎#175

175. Endeavor

1 We hear the dear Master calling,
“Oh, come to my vineyard today;
The harvest is ready to gather,
Oh, come and no longer delay;
Endeavor to work in the daylight,
Endeavor to save while you may;
Endeavor to gather the harvest,
Ere night comes thy labors to stay.

Refrain:
Endeavor, endeavor,
Endeavor to work for our Lord;
Endeavor, endeavor,
Endeavor to work for our Lord.

2 Dear Master, we list to thy calling,
And gladly we hasten today,
To make a most earnest endeavor,
In all things thy will to obey;
Endeavor to lift up the fallen,
Endeavor to strengthen the weak;
Endeavor to gather the harvest,
And ever thy praises to speak. [Refrain]
