Hymn 343
Christian, work for Jesus
1. Christian, work for Jesus,
Who on earth for thee,
Laboured, wearied, suffered,
Died upon the Tree.
2. Work, with lips so fervid
That thy words may prove
Thou hast brought a message
From the God of love.
3. Work, with heart that burneth
Humbly at His feet,
Priceless gems to offer,
For His crown made meet.
4. Work, with prayer unceasing,
Borne of faith’s strong wing,
Earnestly beseeching
Trophies for the King.
5. Work, while strength endureth,
Until death draw near;
Then thy Lord’s sweet welcome
Thou in heaven shalt hear.
