Go Labour On; Spend, And Be Spent,
Thy Joy To Do The Father’s Will;
It Is The Way The Master Went,
Should Not The Servant Tread It Still?
Go Labour On; ‘Tis Not For Nought,
Thy Earthly Loss Is Heavenly Gain;
Men Heed Thee, Love Thee, Praise Thee Not;
The Master Praises; What Are Men?
Go Labour On, While It Is Day,
The World’s Dark Night Is Hastening On;
Speed, Speed The Work, Cast Sloth Away;
It Is Not Thus That Souls Are Won.
Men Die In Darkness At Your Side
Without A Hope To Cheer The Tomb;
Take Up The Torch, And Wave It Wide,
The Torch That Lights Time’s Thickest Gloom.
Toil On, Faint Not, Keep Watch, And Pray;
Be Wise, The Erring Soul To Win;
Go Forth Into The World’s Highway,
Compel The Wanderer To Come In.
Toil On, And In Thy Toil Rejoice;
For Toil Comes Rest, For Exile Home;
Soon Shalt Thou Hear The Bridegroom’s Voice,
The Midnight Peal, Behold I Come!
