1 We look around on ev'ry side,
The seeds of sin are scattered wide;
There's a work for you in ev'ry land,
While he is calling, lend a hand.

Chorus:
O lend a hand, yes, lend a hand,
The Master's work is great and grand;
Go, work today, at his command,
While he yet calls us,
O lend a hand.

2 We must by faith to Christ draw near,
But we must work while we are here;
We are not called to idly stand,
The Lord wants workers, lend a hand. [Chorus]

3 We do not have for work to pray,
Our work will come to us each day;
Your work and mine the Lord has planned,
None else can do it, lend a hand. [Chorus]

4 Then work for God, O do your best,
In heav'n at last you then can rest;
But till you reach that better land,
There's work for Jesus, lend a hand. [Chorus]
