Representative Text

1 Give time to work for Jesus,
The Way of Life to show
To those you meet upon the street,
Let them the Gospel know.

Refrain:
Give time to work for Jesus,
Give time to Him each day;
Let others know, where’er you go,
Salvation’s wondrous way.

2 Give time to work for Jesus,
And seek God’s will to know;
Be much in prayer that you may bear
Rich blessings as you go. [Refrain]

3 Give time to work for Jesus,
And take God’s Word as guide;
Its message learn, its truth discern,
Its promises abide. [Refrain]

4 Give time to work for Jesus,
The Lord your work will own;
Each soul you win from paths of sin
Adds glory to your crown. [Refrain]

After attending a revival meeting by Reuben Torrey and Charles M. Alexander, Harkness became Alexander’s pianist. He came to Christ shortly thereafter (on a bicycle, he said), and made several round the world tours with Torrey and Alexander. Harkness was especially well known for his program The Music of the Cross, and as the author of correspondence courses in hymn playing. He wrote over 2,000 hymns and Gospel songs in his lifetime.
