Joyful Songs ‎#41

41. Works; Rest

1 Pressing onward in your calling
Whatsoe'er it be;
On the mountain high or the valley low,
There duty waits for thee.

2 Weary tho' you may be, brothers,
Faint not by the way;
For the rest is sweet where the blessed meet,
In homes of endless day.

3 Yes, the rest is very blessed,
If the work is done,
And the soul shall know all the warmth and glow
Of heaven, when it is won.
