Devotional Songs ‎#79

79. There's Work to Do

1 From the early morning light,
To the silent hour of night,
O remember there is work for all.
With the precious balm of rest,
To the weary hearts oppressed,
let us hasten at the Masters call.

Chorus:
Work to do, work to do,
And a song of joy we’ll sing;
From the early morning light
To the silent hour of night,
While we labor for the Lord our King!

2 There is work that we must do,
And our strength He will renew
If we trust Him while the time shall last;
He will keep us in His care,
He will hear and answer pray’r,
And defend us till our days are past. [Chorus]

3 There is work that we must do,
And a path we must pursue;
There’s a promise in His Word laid down,
Of a resting by and by,
And a mansion in the sky,
Where the faithful shall receive their crown. [Chorus]
