Finish Thy Work.

Finish thy work, the time is short;
The sun is in the west;
The night is coming down-tin then
Think not of rest.
Yes finish all thy work, THEN rest;
Till then, rest never;
The rest prepared for thee by God
Is rest for ever,
Finish thy work, then wipe thy brow,
Ungird thee from thy toll;
Take breath, and from each weary limb
Shake off the soil.
Finish thy work. then sit thee down
On some celestial hill,
And of its strength reviying air
Take thou thy fill.
Finish thy work, then go in peace;
LIES battle fought and won;
Hear from the throne the Masters voice,
"wen done, well done!"
Finish thy work, then take thy harp,
Give praise to God above;
Sing a new song of mighty joy
And endless love.
Give thanks to Him who held thee up
In ell thy path below,
Who made thee faithful unto death,
And crowns thee now.
