THE FAITHFUL FEW

THE FAITHFUL FEW

by Chester Shuler

 

In every church, in every clime, When there's some work to do, 
It's very likely to be done By just the "Faithful Few." 
 

Many folks will help to sing, And some are glad to talk; 
But when it comes to doing things; A lot of them will balk. 

"I can't do this, I can't do that; Excuse me, please, this time
I'd be so glad to help you out, But it's just not in my line." 

So when the brethren look about For some who'll help to "do," 
They nearly always have to go And ask the "Faithful Few." 

They know full well they're busy, too, And always hard at work. 
Yet they are sure they'll not refuse Not any duty shirk. 

They never stop to make excuses But always try to do 
The very, very best they can To smooth the way for you. 

God bless, I pray, the "Faithful Few," And may their tribe increase. 
They must be very precious to The blessed Prince of Peace.
