Work, For the Night is Coming.
Author: Annie L. Walker Hymnal: Victory Songs #301 (1920) Topics: Personal Work and Service First Line: Work for the night is coming Lyrics: 1 Work for the night is coming,
Work thro' the morning hours;

Work 'mid springing flow'rs.
Work when the day grows brighter,
Work in the glowing sun,
Work, for the night is coming,
When man's work is done.

Work through the sunny noon;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon.
Give every flying minute,
Something to keep in store;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man works no more.
3 Work for the night is coming,
Under the sunset sky;
While the bright tints are glowing,
Work, for daylight flies.
Work till the last beam fadeth,
Fadeth to shine no more,
Work, while the night is dark'ning,
When man's work is o'er. Languages: English Tune Title: [Work for the night is coming]
