Sheet music
- 1In the hush of early morning,When the breeze is whisp'ring low,There's a voice that gently calls me,And its accents well I know;Here I am, O Savior, waiting,For Thy will alone is mine;This is all my crown and glory:I am Thine, and only Thine.
- 2When the noontide falls upon me,With its fervid light'ning ray,There's a voice divinely earnest,Bids me work while it is day;Open, Savior, now before meAll Thy will for me to do;Only help me, watching, working,Still to keep my Lord in view.
- 3As the dewy shades steal downwardO'er the earth at evening mild,There's a voice I love that whispers,“After labor, rest, my child;”O my Savior, loving, tender,Help me to account it blestThus to work within Thy vineyard, ill Thou callest me to rest.
