Work while it is day, the Mas­ter did com­mand;
I come quickly;
Which we pour forth with ma­ny a tear
Accept the tear­ful pray­er we raise
I have an an­chor for my soul.
In loving Jehovah your God by listening to His voice
But the fields with the grain are gold­en,
The ev­en­ing shades are fall­ing,
Gird thee for the conflict;
start
Then let us all with ear­nest care,

fast

When the tempt­er would pre­vail,
When the tempter would prevail,
Cling to truth un­til the last!
Cling to truth un­til the last!
The Rock stands fast!
Hold fast till I come,
While the tem­pest rag­es,
New tho’t may be well in its way,
Stand fast whate’er be­tide!
Evening shades are fall­ing, night comes swift­ly on;
I come quickly;
Thou mild­est search­er of the heart,
Each heart is ma­ni­fest to Thee;
In ev­ery wild and stor­my blast;
In loving Jehovah your God by listening to His voice
Not yet, not yet is the su­mmer ended,
The Ho­ly One is call­ing,
Christian, dost thou hear them,
Shadowed forth in ag­es past,
And works of mer­cy and of love,
