Effort sustains reward
Faith’s diligence, though vision-blind
Sees fitly through God’s word
Seek Him, not worldly sense
Often opinion-bold
Of riches yet untold
Seek Him, and weep with joy
And we with meeker hearts reply
That Christ is Lord indeed
Seek Him, lest unawares
Banking on what we feel
Set by visual appeal
Seek Him, while Time remains
Do not some Bygone grieve
All who trust and believe
Someday, ah who knows when
The trumpet of the Lord will sound
And what will we say then
