REWARD OR REJECTION (song)
[Verse 1]
Two endings wait beyond this life,
Two words that Yeshua will say:
“Well done, good and faithful servant,”
Or, “I never knew your way.”
Not the crowds who knew our name,
Not the praise that came from men—
But whether we remained obedient,
And faithful to the end.
[Pre-Chorus]
When no one saw the sacrifice,
When standing true meant standing alone,
Yeshua saw each faithful choice—
And He will recognize His own.
[Chorus]
Reward or rejection—
Which words will we hear?
“Well done, My faithful servant,
You remained when none were near.”
Reward or rejection—
We must choose while there is time.
Not everyone who cries, “Lord, Lord,”
Has surrendered heart and mind.
[Verse 2]
They spoke His name and did great works,
Convinced that they were right;
But religion without submission
Could not survive the light.
They performed before the people,
Yet walked in lawlessness—
They assumed they had His favor,
But never passed the test.
[Pre-Chorus]
It is not activity He seeks,
Nor miracles that men applaud;
But humble hearts that trust His Word
And walk obediently with Yahweh.
[Chorus]
Reward or rejection—
Which words will we hear?
“Well done, My faithful servant,
You remained when none were near.”
Reward or rejection—
We must choose while there is time.
Not everyone who cries, “Lord, Lord,”
Has surrendered heart and mind.
[Verse 3]
He saw the quiet Sabbath kept,
The times we would not bend;
The lonely road of obedience,
The faith that would not end.
He saw the grief and isolation,
Every tear and every loss;
Every time we chose His Kingdom,
No matter what the cost.
[Bridge]
To be known by Yeshua—
To hear Him speak our name;
To know our quiet faithfulness
Was never lived in vain.
To enter resurrection life,
His Kingdom and His joy—
This is why we stand today;
This is what we’re living for.
[Breakdown]
One was loyal—
One performed.
One obeyed—
One ignored.
One sought Yahweh’s approval;
One assumed that it was won.
The difference was not talent—
It was what their lives became.
[Final Chorus]
Reward or rejection—
Which words will we hear?
“Well done, My faithful servant,
You remained through every tear.”
Reward or rejection—
May we choose the faithful way;
Putting Yahweh first in everything,
Obeying day by day.
[Outro]
When this life and all its trials
Have finally reached their end,
May we look upon Yeshua
And hear Him say again:
“Well done, good and faithful servant.
You were faithful to the end.
Enter now into My joy—
You are known by Me, My friend.”
