13. He that winneth souls is wise

1. Blessed is the service of our Lord and King,

   Precious are the jewels we may help to bring;

   Down the passing ages words of counsel ring:

   He that winneth souls is wise.

   He that winneth souls is wise;

   In that home beyond the skies,

   There's a crown of glory, O the wondrous prize!

   He that winneth souls is wise.

2. In the quiet homelife, showing love's bright ray,

   More and more like Jesus living ev'ry day,

   We may guide a dear one to the heav'nward way:

   He that winneth souls is wise.

3. Sow beside all waters, sow the gospel seed,

   Here a word in season, there a loving deed;

   Sinners to the Saviour be it ours to lead:

   He that winneth souls is wise.
