Ere the Sun Goeth Down

George Bennard • English

Primary Scripture: John 9:4

Verse 1

There is work that must be done, There are souls that must be won Ere the sun goeth down; Calvary’s story must be told To the lost outside the fold, Ere the sun goeth down.

Chorus

Ere the sun goeth down, Ere the sun goeth down. There is work that must be done, There are souls that must be won, Ere the sun goeth down.

Verse 2

There are many hearts so sad, We must help to make them glad Ere the sun goeth down; There are sorrows we must share, There are burdens we must bear, Ere the sun goeth down.

Chorus

Ere the sun goeth down, Ere the sun goeth down. There is work that must be done, There are souls that must be won, Ere the sun goeth down.

Verse 3

To the harvest fields away, Let us labor while we may, Ere the sun goeth down; We must reap the golden grain From the valley, hill, and plain, Ere the sun goeth down.

Chorus

Ere the sun goeth down, Ere the sun goeth down. There is work that must be done, There are souls that must be won, Ere the sun goeth down.
