Work, for the Night Is Coming
1.
Work, for the night is com-ing, Work thro' the morn-ing hours; Work while the dew is spar-kling, Wor 'mid spring-ing flowers; Work when the day grows bright-er,
2.
Work, for the night is com-ing, Work thro 'the sun-ny noon; Fill bright-est hours with la-bor, Rest comes sure and soon, Give ev-ery fly-ing min-ute, Somt-thing to keep in store; Work, for the night is coming, When man works no more
3.
Work, for the night is com-ing, Un-der the sun-set skies; While their bright tints are glow-ing, Work, for day-light flies, work till the last beam fad-eth, Fadeth to shine no more; Work while the night is dark-ening, When man's work is o'er.
