Work On

Work on, while you have the light

Work on, while you have the light

Night comes, when no man can work

So come on, get your tools and work

While you have the light

The night is gone, the day is come

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Gird up your loins

It’s time to work

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Work on, while you have the light (ooh)

Fight on, while you have the grace

Not long from now, light will be gone, grace will be gone

So work on, while you have the light (oh, my brother)

Work on, while you have the light

The night comes, when no man can work

So come on, get your tools and work

While you have the light

Woo!

Fight the good fight, finish your course

Ooh, ooh, ooh

And keep the faith, it’s time to move

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Henceforth, there is laid up for me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

A crown, crown of righteousness

One which the Lord, the righteous judge

Shall give to me, ooh

Fight on, while you have the grace (come on and fight, ooh)

Fight on, while you have the grace

Mmm

Fight on, while you have the grace

Oh come on, get your tools and work

Hath now appeared to every man

Teaching us to deny worldly lusts
