1 "Go work in my vineyard,"
Bright beameth the day;
Why stand ye here idle?
Time passeth away.
Work while it is morning,
Wait not for the noon;
Go, labor till evening,
Rest cometh so soon.

Chorus:
Work in the vineyard of the Master,
Work from the morning till the night;
Work with a prayerful, earnest spirit,
He will give whatever is right.

2 Go work in the vineyard,
Wait not for the night;
He surely will give you
"Whatever is right."
Why then are ye idling?
Come, enter today;
He only is worthy
Who hears to obey. [Chorus]

3 Go work in the vineyard,
Last call for the day;
If now you refuse Him,
Turn from Him away,
No mercy He'll give you,
Why will you refuse?
Life, death, are before you,
Which then will ye choose? [Chorus]
