Go work in the vineyard,
’tis Jesus commands,
Then why are we idle
and folding our hands?
He speaks to the children
and we must obey,
Go work in the vineyard,
go labor today.
Sow in the morning
the seed of the Word,
Sow in the morning
and trust in the Lord,
He of our labor
a record will keep;
Life everlasting
and joy we shall reap.
Go forth in the vineyard,
how earnest the call,
There’s work for the children,
there’s plenty for all:
Too precious the moments
to squander away,
Go work in the vineyard,
go labor today.
Sow in the morning
the seed of the Word,
Sow in the morning
and trust in the Lord,
He of our labor
a record will keep;
Life everlasting
and joy we shall reap.
Go work in the vineyard,
how glad we should be
That Jesus is saying
to you and to me,
The harvest is coming,
arise! and away,
Go work in the vineyard,
go labor today.
Sow in the morning
the seed of the Word,
Sow in the morning
and trust in the Lord,
He of our labor
a record will keep;
Life everlasting
and joy we shall reap.
Go forth at His bidding
our places to fill,
Go forth at His bidding
and work with a will;
Grieve not the dear Savior
by longer delay,
Go work in the vineyard,
go labor today.
Sow in the morning
the seed of the Word,
Sow in the morning
and trust in the Lord,
He of our labor
a record will keep;
Life everlasting
and joy we shall reap.
