1. There is a great work, a long-delayed work,
That God has appointed to do;
There is a loud call, a mighty great call,
That God has appointed to you.
Refrain
Come up to the help, the help of the Lord,
Come up and join with us today!
Come up to the help, the help of the Lord,
Yes, come and join with us, we pray!
2. The work is to serve, to give to mankind
The bounteous gifts from above;
For servants we call, who want to give all,
With hearts all united in love.
3. Let’s finish the task our Father needs done,
Let’s follow wherever He goes;
Let’s answer the cry from earth’s farthest fields
Our hearts and our minds all aglow.
– Polly Chapman
