To Be Sung at Work - Another Source: Hymns and Sacred Poems (1739), Part II Author: Charles Wesley (attributed) --- 1 Summon’d my labour to renew, And glad to act my part, Lord, in thy name, my task I do, And with a single heart. 2 End of my every action thou!

(1756). 3 Whate’er the Father views as thine, He views with gracious eyes. Jesus! This mean oblation join To thy great sacrifice. 4 Stampt with an infinite desert My work he then shall own; Well-pleas’d in me, when mine thou art, And I his favourite son!
