There's a Work For You To Do

1 O, why art thou idle today, brother?
There is work all around you to do,
For the fields of the Lord are all white, brother,
But the laborers there are few.

Chorus:
There's a work to do, brother,
Work for us all to do;
For the Lord has a work for us all, brother,
And there must be a work for, you.

2 Tho' your strength, it is true, may be small, brother?
You can work in the field of the Lord,
And the sheaves that you gather for Him, brother,
Shall bring you a rich reward. [Chorus]

3 Then work for the Lord, while you may brother?
For swiftly the day speedeth on,
And the shadows of night soon will fall, brother,
When the working of life is done. [Chorus]
