I Want to Be a Worker

I want to be a work­er for the Lord

I want to love and trust His ho­ly Word

I want to sing and pray

Be bu­sy ev­ery day

In the vine­yard of the Lord.

I will work

I will pray

In the vine­yard

in the vine­yard of the Lord.

I will work

I will pray.

I will la­bor ev­ery day

in the vine­yard of the Lord.

I want to be a work­er ev­ery day

I want to lead the err­ing in the way

That leads to Heav’n ab­ove

Where all is peace and love

In the vine­yard of the Lord.

I want to be a work­er strong and brave

I want to trust in Je­sus’ pow’r to save;

All who will tru­ly come

Shall find a hap­py home

In the vine­yard of the Lord.

I want to be a work­er; help me

Lord

To lead the lost and err­ing to Thy Word

That points to joys on high

Where plea­sures nev­er die

In the vine­yard of the Lord.
