Goodies from You
Eternal Praise

Eternal Praise

Life, so short, yet great and grand,

Waiting for a noble stand

From us all unselfish give;

Do the right, and joyous live!

 

See the truth, and that the pure:

Thus your future be made sure.

“Lord, You even see my heart;

Take it, guide it by Your chart!

 

“Help me now to do Your will,

Give the strength; with Spirit fill

This poor vessel of Thine own,

For with You, I’m not alone!”

 

We are bound for Canaan’s land!

As a part of Vict’ry’s band,

We will sing, and praise His name,

Never more t’will be the same.

 

Though the battle may grow hard,

Never let thy faith be marred!

Suff’ring is the human fate;

Eternity is plenty great.

 

While we’re here, much praise we might,

Pride must not stand o’er the right!

Aiming high brings no one hurt,

Keeping principles inert.

 

Follow on the narrow way

‘Till God’s Heav’n you find some day,

Find yourself from mort’l attire

Singing with the angel choir

 

Orchestral tones around the throne

Praising our Chief Cornerstone.

Glorify the King of Kings!

(We will fly with angel’s wings!)

 

Nevermore t’will be at bay

“Hallelujah!” we will say.

On the road with Christ let’s start

Glorifying God through art!

 

Intruments of living wood

Singing forth, “With God we could!”

Heav’nly music, reverence-bound

Harmony! Immortal sound!
