In Our Work and in Our Play
Text written by Whitfield G. Wills (1841-1891)
Sung to ROSSLYN, an English melody
Isaiah 43:15 I am the Lord, your Holy One, Israel’s Creator, your King.
1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
V. 1 In our work and in our play,
Jesus, ever with us stay;
May we always strive to be
True and faithful unto Thee.
Then we truthfully can sing,
We are children of the King.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
V. 2 May we in Thy strength subdue
Evil tempers, words untrue,
Thoughts impure, and deeds unkind,
All things hateful to Thy mind.
Then we truthfully can sing,
We are children of the King.
V. 3 Children of the King are we!
May we loyal to Him be;
Try to please Him every day,
In our work and in our play.
Then we truthfully can sing,
We are children of the King.
