Do the Duty Nearest Lying
Author: Alice Jean Cleator Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #136 (1910) Topics: Work Refrain First Line: Work, O work! the Master needs you Lyrics: 1 Do the duty nearest lying,
It will make the next more clear;
Linger not for doubt or sighing,
Labor on with heart of cheer.
Tho’ the task to thee seem lowly,
Do it bravely; it is thine;
Ev’ry deed for God is pure and holy,
Love will make them all divine.
Refrain:
Work, O work! the Master needs you,
In this wondrous harvest field;
Work, O work! the Master calls that
You may your best service yield.
2 O the task of God’s assigning
Is the one for thee alone!
Waste no time in weak repining,
Labor on till day is done.
Does the tempter whisper to thee,
“Hasten from the path of right?”
Listen not, press bravely onward, ever
Tow’rd the land of love and light. [Refrain]
3 Is the pathway lone and dreary,
Keep the closer to thy Guide,
Close to him who bore the thorn-crown,
And the wound-prints in his side.
If the toil seem like a burden,
Jesus will that burden bear;
Tell to him thine ev’ry anxious trial,
Bring to him thy weight of care. [Refrain]

Through lips of feeble clay,

And rebels will obey.

Thy ministers their tribute bring,
Their tribute of united praise,
For heavenly news and peaceful days.
2 We sing the conquests of thy sword,
And publish loud thy healing word:
While angels sound thy glorious name,
Thy saving grace our lips proclaim.
3 Thy various service we esteem
Our sweet employ, our bliss supreme;
And, while we feel thy heavenly love,
We burn like seraphim above.
4 Nor seraphs there can ever raise
With us, an equal song of praise;
They are the noblest work of God,
But we— the purchase of his blood.
5 Still in thy work would we abound;
Still prune the vine, or plow the ground;
Thy sheep with wholesome pasture feed,
And watch them with unwearied heed.
6 Thou art our Lord, our life, our love,
Our care below, our crown above:
thy praise shall be our blest employ,
Thy presence our eternal joy. Languages: English

Go Ye Into My Vineyard
Author: Ida L. Reed Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #18 (1910) Topics: Work First Line: Go forth for Christ, and labor Refrain First Line: To the work, to the work Lyrics: 1 Go forth for Christ, and labor,
For O the need is great;
There’s urgent call for toilers;
Go, ere it be too late;
For many souls are dying,
That you perchance might save;
Go forth, go forth and help them,
With spirit true and brave.
Refrain:
To the work, to the work!
The Master’s voice is calling;
The night will soon be falling;
Go forth for Christ today.
2 Go forth, go forth, delay not,
The hours glide fast away;
Some precious souls may perish,
Without your help today;
The Master’s condemnation
Shall on earth idler fall,
And they shall miss his blessing
Who will not heed his call. [Refrain]
3 Go forth, the morning shadows
Now lengthen tow’rd the noon,
While yet thy work is waiting,
And darkness cometh soon;
Improve the golden moments,
Like pearls they glide away;
Give, each one, to his service,
Thro’ all the harvest day. [Refrain]

Ere the Sun Goes Down
Author: Josepine Pollard Hymnal: Songs of the Kingdom #46 (1896) Topics: Work First Line: I have work enough to do Lyrics: 1 I have work enough to do,
Ere the sun goes down;

With a purpose firm and willing,
All my daily task fulfilling,
Ere the sun goes down.

Ere the sun goes down,

For the night is fast descending,
And my life will have an ending,
When the sun goes down.

Ere the sun goes down;
I must let my voice be heard,
Ere the sun goes down;
Ev’ry cry of pity heeding,
For the injured interceding,
To the light the lost ones leading,
Ere the sun goes down. [Refrain]
3 As I journey on my way,
Ere the sun goes down,
God’s commands I must obey,
Ere the sun goes down;
There are sins that need confessing,
There are wrongs that need redressing,
If I would obtain a blessing,
Ere the sun goes down. [Refrain] Scripture: John 12:17 Languages: English Tune Title: [I have work enough to do]
