Verse 1

The end of all things draws near,

all of heaven and earth is over.

How can man escape

the final days of human existence?

How can those who revere God

and long for Him to appear

not see the day of God’s righteous appearance?

Verse 2

How can they not be given

the final reward for goodness?

Are you the one who does good

or are you one who does evil?

Do you accept righteous judgment

and thus become obedient?

Or do you accept it only to end up being cursed?

Pre-chorus

Have you lived in light

before the seat of God’s judgment?

Or have you been living

in darkness in the underworld?

Don’t you know best

if you’ll be rewarded or punished?

Don’t you know best that God is righteous?

Chorus

So just what are your conduct and heart like?

How much have you given up for God?

How deeply do you worship Him?

Don’t you know most clearly

your behavior towards Him?

You should know better than anyone

what end you will finally meet.

Verse 3

God only created man, so created you also,

but didn’t hand you to Satan,

make you resist or rebel against Him,

and be punished by Him.

Aren’t all these afflictions because

your hearts are too hard

and your conduct too despicable?

Chorus

So just what are your conduct and heart like?

How much have you given up for God?

How deeply do you worship Him?

Don’t you know most clearly

your behavior towards Him?

You should know better than anyone

what end you will finally meet.

Bridge

Don’t you decide your own end?

And don’t you know your end in your heart?

The reason God conquers people

is to reveal them and bring salvation.

It’s not to make you do evil

or lead you to hell of ruin.

In the end won’t your suffering

and all your weeping be due to your sins?

Chorus

So just what are your conduct and heart like?

How much have you given up for God?

How deeply do you worship Him?

Don’t you know most clearly

your behavior towards Him?

You should know better than anyone

what end you will finally meet.

Tag

Is not your goodness or your own evil

the best judgment of you?

Is it not the best proof of

what your end will be?
