Away! away! not a moment to linger,
Haste we now with footstep free,
Where those who love
in the vineyard to labor,
Wait for you and me.
To the Sunday school
rejoicing we will go,
’Tis a place where
all are happy here below.
Where the way of life
we learn to know,
And seek our home above.
Away! away! where
the angels are bending
Lightly o’er the house of prayer.
Glad hymns of praise
to the Lord of the Sabbath,
Sweetly echo there.
To the Sunday school
rejoicing we will go,
’Tis a place where
all are happy here below.
Where the way of life
we learn to know,
And seek our home above.
Away! away! for the moments are flying,
Time for us will soon be o’er;
This holy day we will try to improve it,
Ere its light is o’er.
To the Sunday school
rejoicing we will go,
’Tis a place where
all are happy here below.
Where the way of life
we learn to know,
And seek our home above.
Away! away! not a moment to linger,
Haste we now with footsteps free,
Where those who love
in the vineyard to labor,
Wait for you and me.
To the Sunday school
rejoicing we will go,
’Tis a place where
all are happy here below.
Where the way of life
we learn to know,
And seek our home above.
