Working for the Crown

Author: H. A. Mabry Hymnal: The Best of All #102 (1910) First Line: Shall I be content with one star Lyrics: 1 Shall I be content with one star in my crown, When heaven’s bright portals I see? The answer comes back—strive a cluster to win, And the way will be brighter for thee. Refrain: Working for the crown, Working for the crown, Working for the crown, We shall wear by and by. 2 When, Lord, must I work? shall I go in the heat, To white and to wide harvest fields, Where work is so great and the lab’rers so few, And the promise a bountiful yield? [Refrain] 3 Yes, all kinds of work I will find in this field, My task then quite plain I can see, And now having found it I’ll labor and wait, For wholly Thine, Lord, would I be. [Refrain] 4 And how shall I get these rare gems for my crown? Must I wait till heaven I gain? Yes, yes, but toil here for the Master’s renown, Day by day for the Lamb that was slain. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Shall I be content with one star]
