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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.
