Who does God's work will get God's pay
However long may seem the day,
However weary be the way.

Though powers may thunder "Nay!"
No human hand God's hand may stay,
Who does God's work will get His pay.

God hurries not, nor makes delay,
Who works for Him will get His pay,
Some certain hour, some certain day.

He does not pay as others pay
In gold or land or minimum wage,
In goods that perish and decay.

But God's high wisdom knows a way,
And this is sure, let come what may,
Who does God's work will get God's pay.

But when do I get a raise?
