Working, O Christ, with Thee

by W. A. Ogden (1841–1897)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 582.

Verse 1

Working, O Christ, with Thee, Working with Thee, Unworthy, sinful, weak, Though we may be; Our all to Thee we give, For Thee alone we live, And by Thy grace achieve, Working with Thee.

Verse 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.

Verse 3

Savior, 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.

Verse 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.
