Working for Jesus, my Saviour and King,
Glad is my heart, and in rapture I sing;
Never from Jesus my footsteps shall stray,
For he will guide in the straight, narrow way.
Working for Jesus, working for Jesus,
Counsellor, Saviour, and King;
Glad in his service, glad in his service,
Hearts as our tributes we bring.
Working for Jesus, while daylight shall last,
Soon will the moments be forever past;
Night will o'ertake me ere longer I roam,
Working until he shall beckon me home.
Working for Jesus, working for Jesus,
Counsellor, Saviour, and King;
Glad in his service, glad in his service,
Hearts as our tributes we bring.
Working for Jesus, what comfort is mine,
Lo, I am led by his guidance divine;
Safely he'll lead me, my feet may not stray,
Soon shall I joy in his infinite day.
Working for Jesus, working for Jesus,
Counsellor, Saviour, and King;
Glad in his service, glad in his service,
Hearts as our tributes we bring.
Working for Jesus, till run is life's race,
When in his beauty I'll see his dear face;
Then in the kingdom of heaven I'll sing
Endless hosannas to Jesus our King.
Working for Jesus, working for Jesus,
Counsellor, Saviour, and King;
Glad in his service, glad in his service,
Hearts as our tributes we bring.
