Sweet to Work for Jesus

Hymnal: Gospel Jewels #107 (1890) First Line: ‘Tis sweet to work for Jesus Lyrics: 1 ‘Tis sweet to work for Jesus, In this life’s little day; To spread around the joyful sound, As those forgiven may; To tell His loving kindness, His promises so true; To urge the young that they may come And trust this Saviour too. 2 ‘Tis sweet to work for Jesus, Be this our one desire; Our purpose still to do His will, Whatever He require; No action is too lowly, No work of love too small; If Christ but lead, we may indeed We’ll follow such a call. 3 ‘Tis sweet to work for Jesus, While our weak spirits rest In His own care, safe sheltered there, And with His presence blessed; In such calm, happy moments, No greater joy we know; Redeemed from sin, we live for Him, To whom our all we owe.
