Hebrews ii, 10.

PERFECT through suffering! Is this the path My Saviour trod? And shall I shrink to follow thee, Thou Lamb of God?
Perfect through suffering—the heart may faint Upon the road, And flesh and spirit both may fail, Yet hope in God.
Perfect through suffering—the gold refined, No dross remains; And o'er the furnace watcheth One, To guide the flames.
Perfect through suffering—a bright reward Before thee lies; Gird up thy loins to run the race, Then seize the prize.
Perfect through suffering—the countless throng Of saints in light, Through tribulations great have come, Affliction's fight.
Perfect through suffering—their robes made white, In Jesus' blood. The tears from every eye are wiped, They reign with God.
Perfect through suffering—the conflict o'er, The race well run; A crown of immortality And joy is won.
Perfect through suffering—is this the path My Saviour trod? Then welcome be its fiery cross, It leads to God.—Sel.
