Analysis of End-The end of all things are at hand, Be sober-minded with your prayer; Be self-controllTime Ethics
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
The end of all things are at hand,
Be sober-minded with your prayer;
Be self-controlled with the demand,
Be diligent handle with care.
Keep loving of one another,
Since love does cover many sin;
Treating like sister and brother,
As tolerance helps discipline.
Showing your hospitality,
To each other without grumbling;
As to increase your dignity,
In which will keep you from stumbling.
Each of us has received a gift,
As good stewards of varied grace;
Serving others as to uplift,
To comfort them and to embrace.
Whoever speaks, will speak for God,
Whoever serves, serves what He gives;
Serving and speaking shows to laud,
Is an example how one lives.
All things that God has glorified,
Christ has dominion forever;
As spoken, you have testified,
Of a love that will not sever.
