Go Labor On

It is the way the Master went; Should not the servant tread it still? 2 Go labor on; count not the cost -- Your earthly loss is heav'nly gain. The world indeed will praise you not, But you will share in heaven's reign. 3 Go labor on while it is day; The world's dark night is hast'ning on. Speed, speed your work, do not delay, For it is thus that souls are won. 4 They die in darkness at your side Without a hope to cheer the tomb; Take up the torch and wave it wide, The torch that lights the thickest gloom. 5 Toil on, faint not, keep watch, and pray; Be wise the erring soul to win. Go forth into the world's wide way; Compel the wand'rer to come in. 6 Toil on and in your toil rejoice; For toil comes rest, for exile home. Soon shall you hear the Bridegroom's voice, The midnight cry, "Behold, I come!" Topics: Evangelism; Evangelism Languages: English Tune Title: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM
