Go Work in the Vineyard

Go work in the vine­yard

’tis Je­sus com­mands

Then why are we id­le and fold­ing our hands?

He speaks to the child­ren and we must ob­ey

Go work in the vine­yard

go la­bor to­day.

Sow in the morn­ing the seed of the Word

Sow in the morn­ing and trust in the Lord

He of our la­bor a re­cord will keep;

Life ev­er­last­ing and joy we shall reap.

Go forth in the vine­yard

how ear­nest the call

There’s work for the child­ren

there’s plen­ty for all:

Too pre­cious the mo­ments to squan­der away

Go work in the vine­yard

go la­bor to­day.

Go work in the vine­yard

how glad we should be

That Je­sus is say­ing to you and to me

The har­vest is com­ing

arise! and away

Go work in the vine­yard

go la­bor to­day.

Go forth at His bid­ding our plac­es to fill

Go forth at His bid­ding and work with a will;

Grieve not the dear Sav­ior by long­er de­lay

Go work in the vine­yard

go la­bor to­day.
