General Hymns

2. Wilt thou forgive that sin which I have won
Others to sin, and made my sin their door?
Wilt thou forgive that sin which I did shun
A year or two, but wallowed in a score?
When thou hast done, thou hast not done,
For I have more.

3. I have a sin of fear, that when I’ve spun
My last thread, I shall perish on the shore;
But swear by thyself, that at my death Thy Son
Shall shine, as he shines now and heretofore:
And, having done that, thou hast done:
I fear no more.

Note.-This hymn may also be sung to Ministres de L'Éternel (No. 258).

G. Thring, 1823-1903.

WORK is sweet, for God has blest
Honest work with quiet rest;
Rest below, and rest above,
In the mansions of his love,
When the work of life is done,
When the battle’s fought and won.

2. Work ye, then, while yet ’tis day,
Work ye Christians, while ye may;
Work for all that’s great and good,
Working for your daily food,
Working whilst the golden hours,
Health, and strength, and youth, are yours.

3. Working not alone for gold,
Not for work that’s bought and sold;
Not the work that worketh strife,
But the working of a life;
Careless both of good or ill,
If ye can but do his will.

4. Working ere the day is gone,
Working till your work is done;
Not as traffickers at marts,
But as fitteth honest hearts;
Working till your spirits rest
With the spirits of the blest.
