Work
for the Night is Coming
If you are a workaholic like me, then your schedule
begins when your feet hit the floor in the morning and ends when the night has
come. We all want to feel accomplishment at what we do, and we want to know
that what we do has a purpose. If we are working at a place that we do not
like, then it is hard to feel accomplished or to find purpose in it. On the
other hand, if what we do is our Ministry handed to us from the Lord, then we know
what our purpose is and accomplishment comes in many forms. It can be a job
well done, or in the praises of those who God gave us to serve. Whatever we do,
whether it be in a job we like or dislike we must learn to lean on God and He
will give us what fulfills us. One thing to remember though is to take on only
what God gives us and learn to say no to what we bring on ourselves through other
requests.
Lyrics by Anna L. Walker, arranged by Lowell Mason
“Work, for the night is coming, Work through the morning
hours; Work while the dew is sparkling; Work, mid springing flowers. Work, when
the day grows brighter.
Work, for the night is coming. Work through the sunny
noon; Fill brightest hours with labor, rest comes sure and soon. Give every flying
minute something to keep in store; Work, for the night is coming, when man
works no more.
Work, for the night is coming, under the sunset skies;
while their bright tints are glowing, work, for the daylight flies. Work till
the last beam faded, faded to shine no more; Work while the night is darkening,
when man’s work is over.”
