1 In the vineyard of the Master,
Is there any work for me?
Lord, accept my grateful service,
I would be of use to Thee.
Refrain:
I would be of use to Thee;
I would be of use to Thee;
Lord, accept my grateful service;
I would be of use to Thee (to Thee).
2 I would serve Thee, blessèd Jesus;
At Thy feet I fain would be;
Humbly learning wisdom’s lesson,
I would be of use to Thee. [Refrain]
3 Winning souls for Thy dear kingdom,
Undeserving tho’ I be;
Let me ever be found faithful,
I would be of use to Thee. [Refrain]
4 O, the joy of such a service,
Soon my Master’s face I’ll see;
Till Thou call’st me, blessed Jesus,
I would be of use to Thee. [Refrain]
