Verse 1

We are workers in the vineyard of the Lord, And we labor day by day; For we study well his holy word, And we hourly watch and pray.

Chorus

We will work in the vineyard, And we’ll hourly watch and pray; We will work in the vineyard, We will work in the vineyard ev’ry day.

Verse 2

Though our hands are very small, our faith is strong, We will work with strength and might; And we’ll help the Master’s cause along, And battle for the right.

Chorus

We will work in the vineyard, And we’ll hourly watch and pray; We will work in the vineyard, We will work in the vineyard ev’ry day.

Verse 3

When this life of toil and labor are all o’er, And our trials are all past; We will praise his name for evermore, That we’re safely home at last.

Chorus

We will work in the vineyard, And we’ll hourly watch and pray; We will work in the vineyard, We will work in the vineyard ev’ry day.
