| Text: | Work for Your Master |

| Tune: | [Work for your Master, work while you may] |
| Composer: | James McGranahan, by per. |
1 Work for your Master, work while you may,
Broad is the field before you--
Sweet is the dawn of life's early day,
Beaming in beauty o'er you.
Refrain:
Work till the toil of the day is done,
Speak of the sin forgiven;
Sing of the starry crown to be won;
Pray till you praise in heaven.
2 Speak for your Master, speak while you may,
Now, while the world will hear you;
It shall be given what you shall say,
Feeling his presence near you. [Refrain]
3 Sing for your Master, sing of his love;
Sing of the mercies given;
Song is the language of saints above,
Song is the breath of heaven. [Refrain]
