Let us watch and pray,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Saying kind­ly un­to all,
We shall re­ceive when our toils are o’er;
Where flow­eth the water so cool­ing and clear.
The morn­ing with joy is bright;
Come to Me, and re­ceive of My rest;
Turn and list­en, stay and hear.
This hum­ble work of mine;
Hail hap­py morn­ing, hail, ho­ly day,
Morning with joy is bright;

Savior, for Thee;
Who dares stand idle, on the har­vest plain
Sow in the morn­ing the seed of the Word,
Just be­yond death’s val­ley dark and cold,
Just be­yond death’s val­ley dark and cold,
Thy joy to do the Fa­ther’s will:
Look to your loom again, fast­er and fast­er
To drop the bur­den now—
To your homes and work again;
To the work! To the work!
Where shall I la­bor for Thee?
And ob­ey the ear­nest call.
Singing to Je­sus praise ev­er­more;
And deal with them wise­ly, the souls of your care,
O see har­vest fields all white.
Thy labor will be sure­ly be blest.
Lean upon your dear Lord’s breast;
By join­ing it to Thine.
Sweet words of wis­dom, glad songs of joy,
Out in the fields so white.
