We All Can Do Something for Jesus

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1868
Composer: Howard Doane

Our school is a vine­yard

a gar­den of truth

Where all can do some­thing for Je­sus;

And though we are just in the morn­ing of youth

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus;

The deep

roll­ing riv­er that flows to the sea

Is made of the brook­let that spar­kles so free;

A les­son

dear child­ren

for you and for me

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus.

The deep

roll­ing riv­er that flows to the sea

Is made of the brook­let that spar­kles so free.

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus

Something

some­thing

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus

Something for Je­sus.

A word to the err­ing

of kind­ness and love

May oft­en re­mind them of Je­sus;

A song of our beau­ti­ful man­sion ab­ove

May lead a poor wan­d’rer to Je­sus;

The acorn

when plant­ed

though small it may be

How quick­ly it grows to a wide spread­ing tree;

A les­son

dear child­ren

for you and for me

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus.

The acorn

when plant­ed

though small it may be

How quick­ly it grows to a wide spread­ing tree.

Oh! sweet­er

far sweet­er

than rich­es or fame

To feel we are work­ing for Je­sus;

The cup of cold wa­ter we give in His name

Will bring us the bless­ings of Je­sus;

The brook and the acorn

the leaf and the tree

Are teach­ing a les­son to you and to me;

No mat­ter how sim­ple the ef­fort may be

We all can do some­thing for Je­sus.

The brook and the acorn

the leaf and the tree

Are teach­ing a les­son to you and to me.
