Stirring Steadfastness

"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 15:58).

Be steadfast now, my brethren,
In your labor for the Lord.
To hear "Well done!" in heaven
Shall be enough reward.

Be steadfast, though there's pain
In the fellowship of Christ.
No suffering is in vain
For our Lamb once sacrificed.

Be steadfast all the way,
For the Lord will give us grace.
Look to that approaching day:
We'll see Him face to face!
