Author: Frances Jane (Fanny) Crosby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7045 First Line: Up and onward, Christian workers Refrain First Line: Haste away, then, Christian workers Lyrics: 1. Up and onward, Christian workers,
Life is fleeting, do not stray;
Great the harvest, few the toilers,
Up and onward, haste away!
Refrain
Haste away, then, Christian workers,
Hear the deep, despairing call;
Go and rescue those that perish,
Lend a helping hand to all.
2. Where the reapers bear their burdens
In the toil and heat of day,
Where the golden sheaves are waving,
Up and onward, haste away! [Refrain]
3. Where the conflict fiercely rages
On the battlefield today,
With our banner, shield and buckler,
Up and onward, haste away! [Refrain]
4. Consecrated to the service
Of our Savior and our Lord;
Ever faithful, true and earnest,
We shall gain the great reward. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Up and onward, Christian workers]
Up and Onward
