We have found a blest em­ploy,
Work that brings su­prem­est joy,
Whose deep peace finds no al­loy—
Winning souls for the Mas­ter.

Refrain

Winning souls, win­ning souls,
Bringing them to the bless­èd Mas­ter!
Winning souls, win­ning souls,
Winning souls for the Mas­ter!

What tho’ tri­als we must face,
What tho’ thor­ny paths we trace,
God still grants abound­ing grace—
Winning souls for the Mas­ter.

Refrain

For each long­ing soul to win,
For each pang o’er oth­er sin,
Christ more ful­ly reigns with­in,
Winning souls for the Mas­ter.

Refrain

Gladness here and rap­ture there
O’er the ga­thered sheaves so fair,
Which we to the gar­ner bear,
Winning souls for the Mas­ter.
