357- Come, Labor On

Christian Church: Mission of the Church

1

  • Come, labor on.
  • Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain
  • While all around him waves the golden grain?
  • And to each servant does the Master say,
  • "Go work today."

2

  • Come, labor on.
  • Claim the high calling angels cannot share;
  • To young and old the gospel gladness bear;
  • Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly.
  • The night draws nigh.

3

  • Come, labor on.
  • No time for rest; till glows the western sky,
  • Till the long shadows o'er our pathway lie,
  • And a glad sound comes with the setting sun,
  • "Well done, well done!"
