173. Wherever You May Be

1 On the land, on the sea,
Wherever you may be,
Bearing witness for your Lord,
In your work day by day,
His blessed voice obey,
Guided by His faithful word.

Refrain:
Ev’rywhere, ev’rywhere,
Let the world your glorious Saviour see,
Joy to make it known,
You are His alone,
To Him all the praise shall be.

2 Keep your aim high and true;
Whatever you may do,
Seek the honor of your King;
Humbly seek for each hour
His Spirit’s wondrous pow’r,
Ev’ry need to Jesus bring. [Refrain]

3 Let your hand freely sow,
Wherever you may go,
Living seeds of faith and love,
Springing up by the way,
Until the Harvest day,
When the reapers meet above. [Refrain]
