| :::::''1.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, dear to Jesus,
| |
| :To your homes and work again;
| |
| :Go with brave hearts back to duty,
| |
| :Face the peril, bear the pain.
| |
| :Be your dwellings ne’er so lowly,
| |
| :Yet remember, by your bed,
| |
| :That the Son of God most holy
| |
| :Had not where to lay His head.
| |
| :::::''2.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, think of Jesus
| |
| :As you rest your homes within,
| |
| :Think of that sweet Babe of Mary
| |
| :In the stable of the inn.
| |
| :Think how in the sacred story
| |
| :Jesus took a humble grade,
| |
| :And the Lord of Life and Glory
| |
| :Worked with Joseph at His trade.
| |
| :::::''3.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, pray to Jesus;
| |
| :Oh, how Jesus prayed for you!
| |
| :In the moonlight, on the mountain,
| |
| :Where the shimmering olives grew.
| |
| :When you rise up at the dawning,
| |
| :Ere in toil you wend your way,
| |
| :Pray, as He prayed, in the morning,
| |
| :Long before the break of day.
| |
| :::::''4.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, be like Jesus,
| |
| :Undefilèd, chaste, and pure;
| |
| :And, though Satan tempt you sorely,
| |
| :By His grace you shall endure.
| |
| :Husband, father, son and brother,
| |
| :Be ye gentle, just and true—
| |
| :Be ye kind to one another,
| |
| :As the Lord is kind to you.
| |
| :::::''5.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, seek for Jesus,
| |
| :Where He tells you ye shall find,
| |
| :In the children, ’mid the mourners,
| |
| :In the sick, poor, lame and blind—
| |
| :“Search the Scriptures,” He entreats you,
| |
| :“For of Me they testify”;
| |
| :Love His altar, where He meets you,
| |
| :Saying, “Fear not—It is I.”
| |
| :::::''6.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, go to Jesus,
| |
| :In your sorrow, shame and loss;
| |
| :He is nearest, you are dearest,
| |
| :When you bravely bear His cross.
| |
| :Go to Him, who died to save you,
| |
| :And is still the sinner’s Friend;
| |
| :And the great love, which forgave you,
| |
| :Will forgive you to the end.
| |
| :::::''7.''
| |
| :Sons of labor, live for Jesus,
| |
| :Be your work your worship, too;
| |
| :In His Name, and to His glory,
| |
| :Do whate’er you find to do;
| |
| :Till this night of sin and sorrow
| |
| :Be for ever overpast;
| |
| :And we see the golden morrow,
| |
| :Home with Jesus, home at last!
