Let us be about our Fa­ther’s bu­si­ness,
Ev’ry day, as we go
On our way here be­low:
Never let it suf­fer thro’ re­miss­ness,
But seek to make it thrive and grow.

Refrain

Then re­spond to the call,
He has use for us all,
And His work is a la­bor of love;
And the days soon will come
In the great Har­vest Home,
For our rest and re­joic­ing above.

Do you ask what is the work He sends us?
’Tis what­e’er we can do,
’Tis to bear and be true,
And to use the tal­ents that He lends us,
That others may ac­cept Him too.

Refrain

When in Hea­ven and the toil is end­ed,
Oh, what bliss it will be
In that place then to see
Those dear souls whom we on earth be­friend­ed,
And led to Him who made them free.
