Burn the Candle At Both Ends
Burn the candle at both ends,
Using the fire deep inside;
The desire to do the task
Is ignited far and wide.
To live at a hectic pace
Is just having a hard time;
The volume of the duty
Is like a mountain to climb.
Long hours work without rest
Makes us real vulnerable;
Both body and mind may be
Exposed or susceptible.
Working late into the night
Shows earnest, zeal, and ardor;
Starting early in the morn
Even validates vigor.
Let's serve God with all our might,
From dawn till the sun descends;
Every moment of our lives,
Burn the candle at both ends.
