| Tune: | [What wilt Thou have me to do, O Lord] |
| Composer: | W. H. Doane |
1 What wilt Thou have me to do, O Lord,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Thou hast redeemed me, Thy right I own,
Thine are my pow’rs, my Saviour, alone;
Thou hast for me such great things done,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
What is the labor appointed me?
Where shall I labor for Thee?
2 What wilt Thou have me to do, O Lord,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Is it to labor? I’ll gladly go;
Is it to wait? then let it be so;
Only Thy will I ask to know;
What wilt Thou have me to do, O Lord,
What is the labor appointed me?
Where shall I labor for Thee?
3 What wilt Thou have me to do, O Lord,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Sing of Thy mercy who died for me?
Tell the good news, salvation is free?
Say, shall I work or sing for Thee?
What wilt Thou have me to do?
What is the labor appointed me?
Where shall I labor for Thee?
