What matters is eternity
- What matters is eternity.
In this life we need suffering.
Above there is no grief and woe
for those who suffer here below.
So persevere. - What matters is eternity,
so bear all sorrow willingly.
The crown awaits the souls above
who kiss their crosses here in love.
So persevere. - What matters is eternity.
There time will ever timeless be.
With Christ you’ll be united then,
and you will never weep again.
So persevere. - Look forward to eternity.
Transformed will be all suffering.
“Now I’m transfigured,” you will sing;
“This is the gain from suffering!
The crown is mine.”From My Father, I Trust You by M. Basilea Schlink
