As We Go

Representative Text

1 Let us render loving deeds,
Freely unto him who needs,
As we go, as we go;
It may save him from despair,
And his life may even spare,
If we give him tender care,
As we go.

Refrain:
As we go, let us pursue
What the Lord would have us do;
Let us ne’er a duty shirk,
But for souls’ salvation work,
As we go, as we go.

2 Let us help the weary soul
Burdened down beyond control,
As we go, as we go;
If we make his burden light,
Clear his path and make it bright,
It will give us all delight,
As we go. [Refrain]

3 Let us others try to save
From the dark, untimely grave,
As we go, as we go;
It may lead them to the Lord,
And to heaven’s rich reward,
If we speak a kindly word,
As we go. [Refrain]

4 Let us tell of Jesus Christ
Who for us was crucified,
As we go, as we go;
Tell how He can save from sin,
Make us clean and pure within,
How the crown of life to win,
As we go. [Refrain]
