Go and Work!

Christians

wake

no long­er sleep;

Shall we rest while oth­ers weep?

Shall we sit with fold­ed hands

When the Lord Him­self com­mands?

Go and work! this hour be­gin;

Go and seek the lost to win;

From the dark ab­odes of sin

To the feast

oh

bring them in!

Do we love the Sav­ior’s name?

Can our faith His pro­mise claim?

Have we pledged to Him our all?

Shall we not ob­ey His call?

Do we trust Him as we ought?

Do we live as He has taught?

Are we His

and His alone?

Let our faith by works be shown.

There’s a cross that we must bear

If the crown we hope to wear:

Onward

then

with vi­gor new;

Time is short

the days are few.
