121. Up and Away

1 Heard ye the voice of the Master call?
Up and away, up and away;
Out in the field there's a place for all,
Up and away, away.

Chorus:
Work while the spring of our youth is bright,
Work while our hearts and our steps are light,
Work from the morn to the calm, still night,
Up and away, away.

2 Work for the cause that we love so dear,
Up and away, up and away;
Toil will be sweet with the Saviour near,
Up and away, away. [Chorus]

3 Trust in the Lord while the seed we sow,
Up and away, up and away;
Trust in the Lord and the fruit will grow,
Up and away, away. [Chorus]

4 Work with a will, let us faithful be,
Up and away, up and away;
Then what a reaping we all may see,
Up and away, away. [Chorus]
