Go Work Today

[piano ] [spoken word intro over music] But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard… [Verse 1] As the new day had just begun The father called to his son My boy, this day there is much to do, Will you go into the vineyard and work an hour or two? He said to him with words of such deep hurt, I will not spend this day covered in dirt But seeing his father’s tears he would repent And immediately without regret, the son went…… [Pre-chorus] Will you go to work today?..... [Chorus] The fields are white, the harvest is ready Much will be so lost if you sit there steady Listen up, dear saint and hear what I say [two times] Go to work, in God’s vineyard today (today) [Verse 2] We may never ever get to know What made that young man first say no But whatever he was feeling, what he was going through It made me sit and listen, and write this song for you Yes, your heart may be right now breaking, Friend and kinfolk, never giving, but always taking Whatever may cause you, to respond that very way, Remember, oh remember, there’s much worst off Oh, go to work today…… [Pre-chorus] Will you go to work today?..... [Chorus] The fields are white, the harvest is ready Much will be so lost if you sit there steady Listen up, dear saint and hear what I say [two times] Go to work, in God’s vineyard today (today) [Bridge] Will you go to work today?..... [Verse 3] Today the Father’s still calling, what will your answer be? In the eleventh hour, when there’s so much to be done, as you can see Oh my dear friend and neighbor. I pray that your soul will stir And when the Father call’s for workers, you’ll glady say…. “I go sir”…… [Outro ] The fields are white, the harvest is ready Much will be so lost if you sit there steady Listen up, dear saint and hear what I say [two times] Go to work, in God’s vineyard today (today) [Piano fade to end]
