Representative Text

1 Work with all your might, boys; God de­mands your best!
Labor is en­ab­ling, makes the toil­er blest;
Girls, too, in life’s mis­sions, cher­ish great am­bi­tion!
Put your heart, and soul, and strength in all you do!

Refrain:
Work, work, work with all your might!
Work, work, toil as in God’s sight!
Every task is glo­ri­ous, make your life vic­to­ri­ous;
Up and con­quer, do and dare, in God’s great name!

2 Victories great await you in some glo­ri­ous task;
Powers to win God of­fers all who work and ask;
Day and night un­ceas­ing strive with strength in­creas­ing;
Up and con­quer, do and dare, in Heav’ns own might! [Refrain]

3 Dream not of the hon­ors that sur­round the great;
Do the task be­fore you—who can judge its fate?
With a cour­age ho­ly and a spi­rit low­ly,
Glorify the small­est deeds, and make them grand. [Refrain]

4 Everything is lof­ty in God’s won­drous plan;
Make your in­fluence felt, then; brave it like a man!
Great or low your call­ing, with a zeal en­thrall­ing,
Raise it up to heights sub­lime in God’s own name! [Refrain]
