To the work, to the work! we are servants of God

Meter: 12.12.12.&Ref.

Scripture: Acts. 6:4

1

To the work, to the work! we are servants of God;

Let us follow the path that our Master has trod;

With the balm of His counsel our strength to renew;

Let us do with our might what our hands find to do;

CHORUS

Toiling on, toiling on,

Toiling on, toiling on,

Let us hope, let us watch,

And labour till the Master comes

2

To the work, to the work! let the hungry be fed,

To the fountain of life let the weary be led

In the cross and its banner our glory shall be;

While we herald the tidings. Salvation is free.;

3

To the work, to the work! there is labour for all,

For the kingdom of darkness and error shall fall;

And the name of Jehovah exalted shall be

In the loud-swelling chorus, "Salvation is free"

4

To the work, to the work in the strength of the Lord,

And a robe and a crown shall our labour reward;

When the home of the faithful our dwelling shall be,

And we shout with the ransomed, “Salvation is free."
