1 If your hand's on the plow, hold on, hold on; Tho' the soil may be sterile and hard, The plowshare will make The fallow ground break, And the plowman will have his reward; Earth's bosom will sparkle with emerald green, And its grain will be golden king; The reapers will come, with loud "Harvest Home." And the gleaners will joyfully sing. Chorus: Hold on, hold on, my brother, hold on, Hold on till the prize is won; Hold on to the plow, And weary not now, For the work is almost done. 2 If your heart's in the work, hold on, hold on; Tho' the way should be gloomy and sad, A light will appear, The pathway be clear, And the heart of the worker be glad; Heav'n's portals will open, and music resound, And the mansions of bliss will ring With praise for the brave, who labor to save, And the angels will joyfully sing.
