On That Day

The good time will come when men will not put

Up with sound doctrine, instead

To suit their own desires they hear,

What their itching ears want to hear

I have fought the good fight

I have finished the race

I have kept the faith

Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness

They turn their ears away from the truth

And turn aside to myths

But you keep your head in all situations

Endure hardship

And do the work of our lord

I have fought the good fight

I have finished the race

I have kept the faith

Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness

Which the lord

The righteous judge

Will award to me, on that day

And not only unto me

But to you who have longed for him

I am already being poured out

Like a drink offering

I have fought the good fight

I have finished the race

I have kept the faith

Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness

Which the lord

The righteous judge

Will award to me, on that day

And not only unto me

But to you who have longed for him
