Do your best while
life’s pilgrim way you tread,
Scatt’ring sunshine while you may;
Bear in mind, while
the precious seed you spread,
Only once you pass this way.
Only once you pass this way,
Only once you pass this way;
Be a blessing while you may,
Only once you pass this way.
Ev’ry day poor
and needy you will find,
Filled with sorrow and dismay;
Do your best some poor,
broken hearts to bind,
Only once you pass this way.
Only once you pass this way,
Only once you pass this way;
Be a blessing while you may,
Only once you pass this way.
Tell the world that
the Savior died for all,
Bid them ever watch and pray;
Lift your voice, shout aloud
the Gospel call,
Only once you pass this way.
Only once you pass this way,
Only once you pass this way;
Be a blessing while you may,
Only once you pass this way.
Be a brave, earnest
soldier in the strife,
Then when comes the close of day,
May the world be
the better for your life,
Only once you pass this way.
Only once you pass this way,
Only once you pass this way;
Be a blessing while you may,
Only once you pass this way.
