13023. What Art Thou Doing For Jesus?

1 What are thou doing for Jesus?
If thou canst give out of love,
Only a cup of cold water,
He will reward thee above.

Refrain:
He gave His life to redeem thee,
Thee to restore to His fold:
All He has done to reclaim thee,
Never in time can be told.

2 What are thou doing for Jesus?
What of Him hast thou to say?
If a sweet word, then delay not,
Let it be whispered today. [Refrain]

3 What are thou doing for Jesus?
If of His cross thou canst sing,
Sing, till the blue dome above thee
Heavenly echoes shall ring. [Refrain]

4 What are thou doing for Jesus?
What hast thou long wished to try?
Do it, for life is fast waning,
And the dark night draweth nigh. [Refrain]
