2) The redeemed are heirs of God; and with Christ, joint heirs.
While we can not comprehend, the glories He's prepared.
Victory in The Lord assured; on that, there's no debate.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
3) The saved, reviled, laughed at, scorned, by hosts of the unsaved.
Refusing that Christ lived and died, and rose up from the grave.
Anger directed at the saved; to these, the lost, berate.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
4) To the lost, The Preaching Of The Cross, is there, absurd.
They laugh at, and mock the Truth, of God's Holy Word.
Though berated by the world, the taunting seems so great.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
5) We're commanded there to preach, The Gospel News to all.
Sadly, not all will repent...respond to The Lord's Call.
Without warning, Christ returns; He is never late.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
6) The Sprit says in the last days, perilous times, there.
After Rapture, at the Bema, rewards are then, shared.
The Church, Christ's Bride, now wed to Him; the joy, consumate.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
7) Through inquisitions, tortures, too; many martyred, there.
A Crown Of Life awaits all these, their lives were not spared.
To live is Christ, to die is gain; our reward, there great.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
8) If you're reading this, and you do not now know The Lord.
Friend, God's Word is sharper there, than any two edged sword.
One day, all bow before Christ; don't wait till it's too late.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
9) Reject Christ; The Lake Of Fire, yours for eternity.
Repent of sin, believe on Christ, Salvation's Gift, is free.
Words now can't describe the joy, in Heaven there, so great.
Our sufferings now do not compare with glory that awaits.
