Author: George F. Root; Hezekiah Butterworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10164 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: At my work I’m always singing Refrain First Line: For I'm thinking of my Savior Lyrics: 1 At my work I’m always singing,
Tho’ the day be cold and long;
Every thought is filled with music,
And I can not cease my song.
Refrain:
For I’m thinking of my Savior,
And the love that crowns my days;
So He fills my heart with gladness,
And my mouth with grateful praise.
2 I am singing of the sunshine,
Tho’ the sky be cold and gray;
I am singing of the summer,
Tho’ the winter chills the day. [Refrain]
3 I’ve a hope ’mid scenes that perish,
And my faith, on joyful wings,
O’er the clouds of life arises,
And in Jesus’ sunlight sings. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: VALLADOLID
