Not one day of service give Him, Lay no trophy at His feet? Refrain: “Must I go, and empty-handed?” Must I meet my Savior so? Not one soul with which to greet Him, Must I empty-handed go? Not at death I shrink or falter, For my Savior saves me now; But to meet Him empty-handed, Thought of that now clouds my brow. Oh, the years in sinning wasted, Could I but recall them now, I would give them to my Savior, To His will I’d gladly bow. Oh, ye saints, arouse, be earnest, Up and work while yet ’tis day; Ere the night of death o’ertake thee, Strive for souls while still you may.

“Must I go, and empty-handed,”
Thus my dear Redeemer meet?
Not one day of service give Him,
Lay no trophy at His feet?
- Refrain:
  “Must I go, and empty-handed?”
  Must I meet my Savior so?
  Not one soul with which to greet Him,
  Must I empty-handed go?
Not at death I shrink or falter,
For my Savior saves me now;
But to meet Him empty-handed,
Thought of that now clouds my brow.
Oh, the years in sinning wasted,
Could I but recall them now,
I would give them to my Savior,
To His will I’d gladly bow.
Oh, ye saints, arouse, be earnest,
Up and work while yet ’tis day;
Ere the night of death o’ertake thee,
Strive for souls while still you may.
