413 I Want to Be a Worker. P.M.

_Delight in God's Work._

I want to be a worker for the Lord,

I want to love and trust his holy word;

I want to sing and pray, and be busy ev'ry day

In the vineyard of the Lord.

Cho.--I will work, I will pray,

In the vineyard, in the vineyard of the Lord;

I will work, I will pray, I will labor ev'ry day

In the vineyard of the Lord.

2 I want to be a worker ev'ry day,

I want to lead the erring in the way

That leads to heav'n above, where all is peace and love,

In the kingdom of the Lord.

3 I want to be a worker strong and brave,

I want to trust in Jesus' power to save;

All who will truly come, shall find a happy home

In the kingdom of the Lord.

4 I want to be a worker; help me, Lord,

To lead the lost and erring to thy word

That points to joys on high, where pleasures never die,

In the kingdom of the Lord.

Isaiah Baltzell.
