| Text: | We'll Work Till Jesus Comes |
| Author: | Elizabeth Mills |
| Tune: | O LAND OF REST |
| Composer: | William Miller |
1 O land of rest, for thee I sigh!
When will the moment come
When I shall lay my armor by
And dwell in peace at home?
Chorus:
We'll work till Jesus comes,
We'll work till Jesus comes,
We'll work till Jesus comes,
And we'll be gathered home.
2 To Jesus Christ I fled for rest;
He bade me cease to roam,
And lean for comfort on His breast
Till He conducts me home. [Chorus]
