Work for Jesus

Author: James Rowe Hymnal: The King of Kings #32 (1915) First Line: In this vale of sadness Lyrics: 1 In this vale of sadness, Grief, and pain, and care, Where the burdened and the weary Meet you ev’rywhere; Oh, what precious blessings May be your each day, If you’ll work for Jesus All along the way. Refrain: Work for Jesus, Help the dear Redeemer, Soothe and comfort, Gladden while you may; Oh, what precious blessings May be yours each day, If you’ll work for Jesus All along the way. 2 Ever hearts are breaking; Cries are ever heard; Ever struggling souls are longing For a cheering word; Oh, what deeds of kindness You may do each day, If you’ll work for Jesus All along the way. [Refrain] 3 There are souls around you, Deep in doubt and sin, Whom an act of love might rescue, Whom a word might win; Oh, what erring brothers You may win each day, If you’ll work for Jesus All along the way. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In this vale of sadness]
