Every Hour for Jesus

Author: Barney Elliott Warren Meter: 11.9.11.8 with refrain Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: Every hour for Jesus, shall my motto be Refrain First Line: Every hour for the Lord Lyrics: 1 Every hour for Jesus! shall my motto be, There is plenty of work we may do; We may all keep busy till the Lord we see, Till He comes for His faithful few. Refrain: Every hour for the Lord, Every hour for the Lord let us spend; Every hour for Jesus till He comes again, When the labor of life shall end. 2 Every hour for Jesus! We must work and pray, We should never be slothful or tire; For the time is coming, so His Word doth say, When our work shall be tried by fire. [Refrain] 3 Every hour for Jesus! and whate’er I do, I must have His approval on me; If I do heart service with the Lord in view, He will bless me and keep me free. [Refrain] 4 Every hour for Jesus! There is work for all, Spend your time in His service alone; Be ye ready, waiting for His every call, Soon He’ll say, “ ’Tis enough, come home.” [Refrain] Hymnal of the Church of God, 1953 (Timeless Truths) Used With Tune: [Every hour for Jesus! shall my motto be]
