I Have Work Enough to Do

Submitted Music


1. I have work enough to do, Ere the sun goes down, For myself and kindred too, Ere the sun goes down: Ev’ry idle whisper stilling With a purpose firm and willing, All my daily tasks fulfilling, Ere the sun goes down.

2. I must speak the loving word, Ere the sun goes down. I must let my voice be heard, Ere the sun goes down. Ev’ry cry of pity heeding, For the injured interceding, To the light the lost ones leading, Ere the sun goes down.

3. As I journey on my way, Ere the sun goes down, God’s commands I must obey, Ere the sun goes down. There are sins that need confessing; There are wrongs that need redressing If I would obtain the blessing, Ere the sun goes down. There are sins that need confessing; There are wrongs that need redressing If I would obtain the blessing, Ere the sun goes down.
