Author: Bryan W. Procter, 1787-1874 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10932 Meter: 8.7.8.5 First Line: Labor’s strong and merry children Lyrics: 1 Labor’s strong and merry children
Comrades of the rising sun;
Let us sing some songs together,
Now our toil is done.
2 No desponding, no repining,
Leisure must by toil be sought;
Never yet was good accomplished
Without toil or thought.
3 Even God’s all holy labor
Framed the sky, the stars, the sun,
Built our earth on deep foundations,
And the world was won. Languages: English Tune Title: BALLWIN
