Representative Text

1 We are workers in the Master’s vineyard,
“All for Christ, and Christ for all!”
We will follow where the Saviour leads us,
Gladly answer to His call.

Refrain:
Workers in His vineyard,
Faithful would we prove;
Ever loyal, ever ready;
Strong in Jesus’ love!

2 Earnest ever, and with true Endeavor,
We will bear our cross each day;
Naught on earth our love for Him can sever,
While we work and watch and pray. [Refrain]

3 Strong in faith, for His we’ll go and labor;
‘Neath a bright, or frowning sky;
Till we gather in His kingdom yonder,
With the faithful by and by. [Refrain]
