THE LORD'S WORK
Author(s): Paul Michael
Songbook: Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Communion,

The Lord had a job for me
And I had so much to do.
I said, "You get somebody else,
Or wait till I get through."
I don't know how the Lord came out,
But He seemed to get along,
But I felt kinda sneakin' like
'Cause I know I'd done Him wrong.

Doo doo doo doo,
doo doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.

Then one day I needed the Lord,
And I needed Him right away,
But way down in my accusin' heart
I could hear Him say,
"I'm sorry, boy, but you know that I've
Got too much to do,
You just find somebody else
Or wait till I get through."

Doo doo doo doo,
doo doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo doo,
doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo,
doo doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.

Then the thought came to me:
What if I had to go,
And stand before the judgement seat,
How could I face the Lord?
Now when the Lord has a job for me,
I never try to shirk.
I lay down what I have on hand,
And I do the good Lord's work.
I lay down what I have on hand,
And I do the good Lord's work.
I lay down what I have on hand,
And I do the good Lord's work.

Doo doo doo doo,
doo doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.
[Repeat]
