Chorus: O lend a hand, yes, lend a hand, The Master's work is great and grand; Go, work today, at his command, While he yet calls us, O lend a hand. 2 We must by faith to Christ draw near, But we must work while we are here; We are not called to idly stand, The Lord wants workers, lend a hand. [Chorus] 3 We do not have for work to pray, Our work will come to us each day; Your work and mine the Lord has planned, None else can do it, lend a hand. [Chorus] 4 Then work for God, O do your best, In heav'n at last you then can rest; But till you reach that better land, There's work for Jesus, lend a hand. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [We look around on ev'ry side]
