Work for the Master
Author: Mrs. E. C. Ellsworth Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #261 (1885) Topics: Christian Work First Line: Ever let thy hand be busy Refrain First Line: Work then for the blessed Master Lyrics: 1 Ever let thy hand be busy,
Lay the threads out one by one;
Ever ply time’s ceaseless shuttle,
Till life’s work is nobly done.
Chorus:
Work then for the blessed Master!
He is with thee day by day;
Be Thou faithful to thy calling;
Work away! yes, work away!
2 Never heed the idlers round thee,
Watchful be with patient eye;
Mark thou well the noble pattern,
And thy life-work beautify. [Chorus]
3 Hand and eye must work together,
Standing ‘neath a light divine;
Thou shalt bring a lasting service,
And the “Well done” shall be thine. [Chorus]

O Toilers in the Vineyard
Author: E. R. Latta Hymnal: Gloria Deo #630 (1901) Topics: Christian Work Refrain First Line: Work on, work on, O brothers Lyrics: 1 O toilers in the vineyard,
The vineyard of the Lord,
Work on both late and early,
Obedient to His word;
Shrink not from heat or burden,
Do not your efforts stay,
And ye shall be rewarded
At closing of the day.
Refrain:
Work on, work on, O brothers,
Your labors blest shall be;
Work on, work on for Jesus
Till death shall set you free.
2 O toilers in the vineyard,
The precious seed you sow,
To an eternal harvest
In heav’n at last shall grow;
Then do not stop to question
If this or that may be,
But work in faith and patience,
Till Jesus sets you free. [Refrain]
3 O toilers in the vineyard,
If sorely now opprest
In heav’n’s eternal morning,
More sweet will be the rest!
In heav’n no heavy burdens!
In heav’n no scorching heat!
No spirit sorely troubled!
No weary hands or feet! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: LOYAL

Work, while it is day

Work, while it is day
Oh, day by day each Christian child
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #299 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Work Lyrics: 1 Oh, day by day each Christian child
Has much to do, without, within;
A death to die for Jesus' sake,
A weary way to wage with sin.
2 When deep within our welling hearts,
The thoughts of pride and anger rise,
When bitter words are on our tongues,
And tears of passion in our eyes;
3 Then we may stay the angry blow,
Then we may check the hasty word,
Give gentle answers back again,
And fight a battle for our Lord.
4 With smiles of peace and looks of love,
Light in our dwellings we may make,
Bid kind good-humor brighten there
And do all still for Jesus' sake.
5 There's not a child so weak and small
But has his little cross to take,
His little work of love and praise,
That he may do for Jesus' sake.

O Look on the Fields
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: Gloria Deo #433 (1901) Topics: Christian Work First Line: O look on the fields that are blooming today Refrain First Line: Work with a will; our mission fulfill Lyrics: 1 O look on the fields that are blooming today,
And haste with the light of the morning away;
Our calling obey and our mission fulfill;
Be fervent in spirit and work with a will.
Refrain:
Work with a will; our mission fulfill;
Be fervent in spirit and work with a will.
2 How bright are the sheaves and how fair to the eye,
How graceful they bend to the breeze floating by;
There’s work for us all and a work we must do;
The harvest is great but the reapers are few. [Refrain]
3 Go cheerfully forth to our labor of love
And gather the grain for the Garner above;
A promise is ours in the word of the Lord;
The winner of souls hath eternal reward. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: ARCHER

O God, Thou faithful God
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #245 (1898) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Topics: Christian Work Lyrics: 1 O God, Thou faithful God,
Thou Fountain ever-flowing,
Without whom nothing is,
All perfect gifts bestowing;
A pure and healthy frame
O give me, and within
A conscience free from blame,
A soul unhurt by sin.
2 And grant me, Lord, to do,
With ready heart and willing,
Whate'er Thou shalt command,
My calling here fulfilling,
To do it when I ought,
With all my strength, and bless
The work I thus have wrought,
For Thou must give success.
3 And let me promise naught
But I can keep it truly,
Abstain from idle words,
And guard my lips e'er duly;
And grant, when in my place
I must and ought to speak,
My words due power and grace,
Nor let me wound the weak.
4 If dangers gather round,
Still keep me calm and fearless;
Help me to bear the cross,
When life is dark and cheerless;
To overcome my foe
With words and actions kind;
When counsel I would know,
Good counsel let me find.
5 And let me be with all
In peace and friendship living,
As far as Christians may;
And if Thou aught art giving
Of wealth and honors fair,
O this refuse me not,
That naught be mingled there
Of goods unjustly got.
6 And if a longer life
Be here on earth decreed me,
And Thou through many a strife
To ripe old age wilt lead me,
Thy patience in me shed,
Avert all sin and shame,
And crown my hoary head
With pure, untarnished fame.
7 Let nothing here on earth
Me from my Saviour sever;
And when I die, O take
My soul to Thee forever;
And let my body have
A little space to sleep
Beside my kindred's grave,
And o'er it vigil keep.
8 And when the Day is come,
And all the dead are waking,
O reach me down Thy hand,
Thyself my slumbers breaking;
Then let me hear Thy voice,
And change this earthly frame,
And bid me aye rejoice
With those who love Thy name.
