SONG 81

The Life of a Pioneer

Printed Edition

(Ecclesiastes 11:6)

  1. 1. At the start of the day, with the sun yet to rise,

    We are making our way

    with the sleep in our eyes, and we pray.

    We are there with a smile for the people we meet.

    Some may stop for a while,

    some pass by on the street, but we stay.

    (CHORUS)

    It’s the life that we choose;

    For Jehovah we live.

    And whatever he asks, we will do.

    In the work we endure,

    Whether sunshine or rain.

    It’s a way we can say ev’ry day: “I love you.”

  2. 2. At the end of the day, with the sun sinking low,

    Feeling happy and tired,

    in our heart there’s a glow, and we pray.

    It’s a life that we love, always giving our best.

    And Jehovah we thank,

    for by him we are blessed ev’ry day.

    (CHORUS)

    It’s the life that we choose;

    For Jehovah we live.

    And whatever he asks, we will do.

    In the work we endure,

    Whether sunshine or rain.

    It’s a way we can say ev’ry day: “I love you.”

(See also Josh. 24:15; Ps. 92:2; Rom. 14:8.)
