[Who labours in the church of God]

The workman is worthy of his meat. —x. 10.

Who labours in the church of God,
(Not who in sloth and pleasures lives,)
He justly challenges his food,
His food by right Divine receives;
And Jesus' ministers require
The labourer's, not the glutton's, hire.
Superfluous luxury they hate,
Inured to toil they suffer on,
On Jesus in His members wait,
Their servants for His sake alone;
And while they in His work abide,
They trust their Master to provide.
