6. Won't You Pray?

1 Christian workers, hear again the Master's patient call,
Go ye forth and labor while 'tis day;
Work and sing together, till the evening shadows fall,
Pray for those who perish far away.

Chorus:
Won't you pray, Won't you pray,
For some loved one lost in sin's dark way?
Won't you pray, Won't you pray,
For some dear one who has gone astray.

2 Christian workers, onward now and haste the lost to save,
Seek them on the mountain wild and cold;
Bring them out of bondage, from the dark abodes of sin,
Lead them to the Shepherd and the fold. [Chorus]

3 Christian workers, weary not, your labors will be blest,
Lift the royal standard while you may;
Tell the heavy laden that in Jesus there is rest,
Bear the gospel tidings far away. [Chorus]
