Call to Labor in God's Vineyard.
1 The vineyard of the Lord
Before his laborers lies;
And, lo! we see the vast reward
Which waits us in the skies.
2 O let us then proceed
In God's great work below,
And following our triumphant Head,
To further conquests go.
3 And let our heart and mind
Continually ascend,
That haven of repose to find,
Where all our labors end.
4 What honor to behold,
In that sublime abode,
The patriarchs and prophets old,
And all the men of God!
5 Then spend our days beneath,
Toiling in cheerful hope;
And fearless pass the vale of death,
And gain the mountain top.
