O haste away, and do your part With willing hands and faithful heart, The hardest task content to take, With earnest zeal, for his dear sake. Refrain: Then haste away, Do not delay, Time flies so fast, Life will not last. Go prove his word, You’ll find it true; A great reward He offers you. Then haste away, Do not delay, Beyond the skies, Awaits your prize; Then haste away, O haste away, The King of kings is calling you. 2 O haste away, press up and on The narrow path where Christ has gone; Your very best with gladness bring, In loyal homage to the King. O haste away, nor stay content Until love’s treasures all are spent; Each lowly act of charity By him will well remembered by. [Refrain] 3 O haste away, the guiding light Fills darkest paths with glory bright; Let living hope each heart inspire; To grow like him be your desire. O haste away the works to share, You’ll surely find the Master there; The deepest joy your heart can know Will be his fellowship below.
