58. There's Work for Us All

1 There's work for us all in the labor of love,
Let no one be idle today;
Go gather the gems for the Master above,
Go, willingly labor and pray.

Chorus:
There's work for us all, there's work for us all!
The Master is calling for me,
No longer delay, go labor and pray,
There's work for us all to do!

2 There's work for us all wheresoever we be,
At labor, at home, or abroad;
Then let us go forth, and we surely shall see
A bountiful harvest for God. [Chorus]

3 There's work for us all! let us go with a pray'r,
That we may find something to do;
Oh, take up the cross, it is easy to bear;
Go forth, for the lab'rers are few. [Chorus]
