Working, O Christ, with thee

Author: Anon. Appears in 29 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 6:1 Lyrics: 1 Working, O Christ, with thee, Working with thee; Unworthy, sinful, weak, Tho' we may be; Our all to thee we give, For thee alone we live, And by thy grace achieve, Working with thee. 2 Along the city's waste, Working with thee; Our eager footsteps haste, Like thee to be; The poor we gather in, The outcasts raise from sin, And labor souls to win, Working with thee. 3 Saviour, we weary not, Working with thee; As hard as thine our lot Can never be; Our joy and comfort this, "Thy grace sufficient is;" This changes toil to bliss, Working with thee. 4 So let us labor on, Working with thee, Till earth to thee is won, From sin set free; Till men, from shore to shore, Receive thee, and adore, And join us evermore, Working with thee.
