Lyrics
1 Do we love our gentle Saviour, We must labor while 'tis day; Work for Jesus, work for Jesus, Till the sunlight fades away. Chorus: Bird and bee and sparkling fountain, Each their cheerful work pursue, O how pleasant to remember, There is something we can do. Little pilgrims bound for Zion, We must labor while 'tis day; Work for Jesus, work for Jesus, Till the sunlight fades away. 2 We can drop a word of kindness, And perhaps that word may be Like an acorn by the way-side, Growing up a stately tree; Wretched homes of want and sorrow, When our tearful eyes behold, We can bring the helpless children To our Saviour's precious fold. Little pilgrims & chorus 3 While we sing to those around us Of our glorious home above, We may lead a careless wanderer To a Saviour's pardoning love. We can help to send the gospel O'er the ocena far away If we love our gentle Saviour We must labor while 'tis day. Little pilgrims & chorus.
