Up and be doing,
for Judgment Day is coming,
Go and preach the Word
where it isn’t heard.
Tell them the story of
Jesus’ love and glory,
And of the better day
for which He came.
Oh, golden hours will never wait,
We must seize them
while them come,
Or forever be too late.
Oh, do not wait for something great,
Do whate’er you find to do
and do it right.
Up and be doing,
there’re millions lost and dying,
Tell them of His love,
a better home above.
Freedom from confusion,
sin, and all illusion,
And Christ,
the blessed Savior crucified.
Oh, golden hours will never wait,
We must seize them
while them come,
Or forever be too late.
Oh, do not wait for something great,
Do whate’er you find to do
and do it right.
Up and be doing,
bring in the weary sinners,
Bring them to the blood,
the precious, cleansing flood.
Tell them what a blessing
there is in true confessing,
And of His boundless grace
to save from sin.
Oh, golden hours will never wait,
We must seize them
while them come,
Or forever be too late.
Oh, do not wait for something great,
Do whate’er you find to do
and do it right.
Up and be doing,
go preach the glorious message,
Simple faith proclaim,
all in Jesus’ name.
Tell He wants to save
and heal the sick and lame,
Oh, glory, hallelujah to His name!
Oh, golden hours will never wait,
We must seize them
while them come,
Or forever be too late.
Oh, do not wait for something great,
Do whate’er you find to do
and do it right.
