Work and Pray
There is
much to do within God's will- we have a commission to fulfill
To go
and to teach and to purify, to be salt and light to a world that dies
Though
life is a vapor, God's word and way has lasting value that will always stay
So while
time is fleeting and passing away let us work and pray - trust and obey
For the
lost and neglected are everywhere and most of mankind lives in hopeless despair
Blinded
and dead to the truth of life, and we have an agenda to end the strife
The
whole world is scattered and bound by sin to end the exile and bring them in
This is
the mission we pursue on earth- to contend salvation as the source of worth
Though
life is a vapor, God's word and way has lasting value that will always stay
So while
time is fleeting and passing away let us work and pray - trust and obey
