[Refrain] 3 There’s surely somewhere a lowly place In earth’s harvest fields so wide, Where I may labor thru life’s short day For Jesus the Crucified; So, trusting my all unto Thy care - I know Thou lovest me - I’ll do Thy will with a heart sincere, I’ll be what You want me to be.

Lo, how its splendor challenges The souls that greatly dare, Yea, bids us seize the whole of life And build its glory there! Amen. Used With Tune: MORWELLHAM
