Just Where You Are

Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Williston Hymns #113 (1917) First Line: Tho' your field of labor cover but a little space Lyrics: 1 Tho’ your field of labor cover but a little space, Do not sigh for broader harvest fields afar; Sure that you will please the Master, trusting still His grace, Do your best for Jesus just where you are. Refrain: Just where you are, Just where you are; Lack of time and space for duty is no bar! Do not sigh for broader harvest fields afar, Do your best for Jesus just where you are. 2 Some must do the smaller things, while others do the great, Giving light of candle, or of blazing star; Go wherever be your field of labor, pray and wait— Do your best for Jesus just where you are. [Refrain] 3 Fill you station without murmur, all your pilgrim days, Letting naught discourage, naught your record mar; Do not crave another place in which to toil or praise— Do your best for Jesus just where you are. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Tho' your field of labor cover but a little space]
