1 You’re pledged to a service that never will end,
Walk well in the path He trod,
Be ready and willing to spend and be spent,
Make ev’ry day count for God.

Refrain:
Make ev’ry day count for God,
Make ev’ry day count for God;
In all that you do
Be faithful and true,
Make ev’ry day count for God.

2 Tho’ pleasure should tempt you to turn from His way,
Be loyal to Him you love;
The best you can offer will never repay;
Make ev’ry day count for God. [Refrain]

3 Go forth where He bids with a song in your heart,
Your feet with His Gospel shod;
With joyful endeavor do well your small part,
Make ev’ry day count for God. [Refrain]
