Representative Text

1 Jesus looks down from His throne in the sky,
Seeing our worship to-day;
Watching our efforts, whenever we try
Meekly and humbly to pray.

Chorus:
Jesus is watching our worship to-day,
Watching, He's watching;
Jesus is watching our worship to-day
Reading, or singing, or trying to pray.

2 Jesus is hearing us now as we sing,
List'ning to each little tongue;
Looking directly at each little thing,
Knowing whatever is sung. [Chorus]

3 Earnestly, then, my dear Savior I ask,
What is my duty to Thee?
Help me to know how the least of a task
May be completed by me. [Chorus]
