Hymn/Song Information

Go labour on your hands are weak Your knees are




Go labour on; spend and be spent,—
Thy joy to do the Father’s will:
It is the way the Master went;
Should not the servant tread it still?


Go labour on; ’tis not for naught;
Thine earthly loss is heavenly gain;
Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not:
The Master praises,—what are men?


Go, labour on; enough, while here,
If he shall praise thee, if he deign
Thy willing heart to mark and cheer:
No toil for him shall be in vain.


Toil on, and in thy toil rejoice;
For toil comes rest, for exile home;
Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom’s voice,
The midnight peal: “Behold, I come!”
