Minnie B. Lowry 1889

1 All around is bright and fair,
While we work for Jesus;
Joy and peace are everywhere,
While we work for Jesus.

Refrain:
Come, O come, this cheerful, happy day;
Come, O come, to Sunday School away.

2 Every face with pleasure beams,
While we work for Jesus;
Every heart with rapture teems,
While we work for Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Nearer seem the realms above,
While we work for Jesus;
Dearer seems our Saviour’s love,
While we work for Jesus. [Refrain]
