Hear the voice of Je­sus say,
Loudly cry­ing un­to all,
In My vine­yard work to­day;
Hearken to His call.

Refrain

Work, then for Je­sus,
He will own and bless your la­bors;
Work, work, for Je­sus,
Work, work to­day.

Refrain

Why, He asks, through all the day,
Stand ye idle, noth­ing do?
Enter in, with­out de­lay,
I have work for you.

Refrain

Work and serve Me with de­light,
Full re­ward to you I’ll give;
At the ga­ther­ing shades of night,
Wages you’ll re­ceive.

Refrain

Through the long and toil­some day,
’Neath a blaz­ing, burn­ing sun,
Bear the heat, pur­sue your way,
Till your task is done.

Refrain
