When My Work Is Done

Author: W. A. S. Hymnal: Good Will #120 (1882) Hymnal Title: Good Will First Line: Only when vict'ry ends the fray Refrain First Line: When the clouds are overpast Lyrics: 1 Only when vict’ry ends the fray, The last battle won; Only when shadows close the day Will my work be done; Struggles fierce and battles long, Foes unnumbered round me throng; Waving banners victor’s song Cheer my spirit on. Chorus: When the clouds are overpast, Forth will shine the sun; Victory will come at last, When my work is done, Victory will come at last, When my work is done. 2 Many a soul in sin enslaved Must for Christ be won; Many a brother must be saved, Ere my work is done; Others may their powers employ, Seeking pleasures which alloy; Jesus’ work is all my joy, As my days glide on. [Chorus] 3 Only a few more days remain, Life will soon be gone; Hasten my feet midst toil and pain, Till my work is done; Souls in darkness wail and cry, Let me to their rescue fly; Show to those about to die, Christ, God’s blessed Son. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Only when vict'ry ends the fray]
