Author: Jane L. Borthwick (1813-1807) alt. Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #357 (1985) Meter: 4.10.10.10.4 Topics: Christian Church Mission of the Church First Line: Come, labor on. Who dares stand idle Lyrics: 1 Come, labor on.
Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain
While all around him waves the golden grain?
And to each servant does the Master say,
“Go work today.”
2 Come, labor on.
Claim the high calling angels cannot share;
To young and old the gospel gladness bear;
Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly.
The night draws nigh.
3 Come, labor on.
No time for rest; till glows the western sky,
Till the long shadows oér our pathway lie,
And a glad sound comes with the setting sun,
“Well done, well done!” Tune Title: ORA LABORA
