Poems - The End Crowns All

The End Crowns All

Verse 1
What though the road be rough?
What if the way be long?
Quivering lips must break
Into a joyous song:
For the end crowns all, and the end will be
A home in His love thro’ Eternity.

Verse 2
What though the warrior faint,
If but the fight be won!
Work that is well complete
Fears not the set of sun.
For the end crowns all, and the Savior’s smile
Will repay us well for earth’s “little while.”

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; in the future there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.”
2 Timothy 4:7-8
