Lyrics

Do ev­ery­thing for Je­sus,
Nor seek an hour’s re­prieve,
But give Him all thy ser­vice
From morn till si­lent eve;
How much to do for Je­sus?
O ne­ver, ne­ver ask;
’Tis ev­ery­thing for Je­sus—
This light­ens ev­ery task.

Bear ev­ery­thing for Je­sus,
Of suf­fer­ing or wrong;
The pa­tient soul grows strong­er;
The way will not be long;
Bear ev­ery­thing for Je­sus,
And count the loss but gain;
Since by His grace He frees us,
And shat­ters eve­ry chain.

Share ev­ery­thing with Je­sus,
For thou art not thine own;
The pain, the joy, the con­flict,
Is not for thee alone;
Share ev­ery­thing with Je­sus,
Each want, each woe, each care;
In ev­ery­thing He sees us,
And hears our ev­ery pray­er.
