Go Work To-day

Author: W. R. Lindsay Hymnal: Sacred Songs No. 1 #3 (1896) First Line: Go work today; behold, the Master calleth Lyrics: 1 Go work today; behold, the Master calleth; Up and away to greet the morning light; See, in the breeze the rip’ning grain is waving; Go, while the summer days with hope are bright. Refrain: Go work today; The Master calleth now to thee; Go work today, And glorious thy reward shall be. 2 Go work today; why tarry by the wayside? Let us obey the Saviour’s earnest call; Still labor on in sunshine or in shadow, Lo, in the harvest there is work for all. [Refrain] 3 Go work today, our blessed Lord commands it, Go in His name, relying on His love; Then at the last, when all the sheaves are gathered, Sweet will the resting be with Him above. [Refrain] Topics: Work - Works Scripture: Matthew 21:28 Tune Title: [Go work today; behold, the Master calleth]
