“Whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation” (Hebrews 13:7).
Here are a few more verses from C. T. Studd’s poem:
When this bright world would tempt me sore,
When Satan would a victory score;
When self would seek to have its way,
Then help me Lord with joy to say;
Only one life, ’twill soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.
Give me, Father, a purpose deep,
In joy or sorrow Thy word to keep;
Faithful and true whate’er the strife,
Pleasing Thee in my daily life;
Only one life, ’twill soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.
Only one life, yes, only one,
Now let me say, “Thy will be done;”
And when at last I’ll hear the call,
I know I’ll say “ ’twas worth it all;”
Only one life, ’twill soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.”
