First Line: Only a look from my Saviour,

Only a look from my Saviour,
Only a clasp of His hand,
Only to watch for His coming,
Only to wait His command ;
Only to follow Him ever,
Aiding the poor and opprest—
Then, when the labour is ended,
Shall come quiet rest.

2 Only a look from my Saviour,
When I am laden with care,
Only a message of mercy,
Whispered in answer to prayer.
Only to gather the weary
Into the fold of the blest —
Then, when the labour is ended,
Shall come quiet rest.

3 Only a look from my Saviour,
Only to trust in His love,
While He is drawing me nearer
Home to His kingdom above ;
Only to work for His glory,
Faithfully doing my best,
Then, when the labour is ended,
Shall come quiet rest.
