Representative Text

1 Work, work! where shall we work,
Where is the field we may share?
Ever in sight is the harvest white,
Work can be found anywhere.

Refrain:
Work, work, work!
Ever we’ll work, work for the Lord;
Haste, haste, haste!
Linger not, time waiteth for none.

2 Work, work! how shall we work,
How shall we labor aright?
Working in love like the angels above,
Working with God in our might. [Refrain]

3 Work, work! when shall we work,
When shall the sickle go in?
Working today is the only way,
If a full harvest we’d win. [Refrain]

4 Work, work! ever we’ll work,
Working with hearts full of love;
Working in might, with the morning light,
Working for Jesus above. [Refrain]
