Refrain: Every hour for the Lord, Every hour for the Lord let us spend; Every hour for Jesus till He comes again, When the labor of life shall end. 2 Every hour for Jesus! We must work and pray, We should never be slothful or tire; For the time is coming, so His Word doth say, When our work shall be tried by fire. [Refrain] 3 Every hour for Jesus! and whate’er I do, I must have His approval on me; If I do heart service with the Lord in view, He will bless me and keep me free. [Refrain] 4 Every hour for Jesus!
