1 Yo quiero trabajar por Señor,
Confiando en su palabra y en su amor,
Quiero yo cantar y orar,
Yo ocupado siempre estar,
En la viña del Señor.
Refrain:
Trabajar y orar,
En la viña, en la viña del Señor;
Sí, mi anhelo es orar,
Y ocupado siempre estar
En la viña del Señor.
2 Yo quiero cada día trabajar,
Y esclavo del pecado libertar;
Conducirlos a Jesús,
Nuestro guía nuestra luz,
En la viña del Señor. [Refrain]
3 Yo quiero ser obrero de valor,
Confiando en el poder del Salvador,
El que quiera trabajar,
Hallará también lugar,
En la viña del Señor. [Refrain]
