There Is Urgency In the Masters Work

Study to show thyself approved 
in thy youthful day 

a man is dispensable 
if the call is rejected 
another is chosen 
to take up the mantle 

there is urgency in the 
masters work 
the call is made 
service minded hearken 

in his presence is 
fullness of joy 
the trenches of 
darkness has no lee 
way 

the word of God lifts up 
the weary minded 
the crust of his lifting 
up is enshrined in his 
presence 

the call is made 
wise fools hearken 
the joy of the lord is 
immeasurable 
neither is the quality of 
his rewards diminished
