Did You Finish Your Assignment?

When the curtains close
And the credits begin to roll
When each character has been identified
Names and positions have all been recognised
Then the screen turns black, and 'The End' rolls by

And when we cross that bridge
And leave the road behind us
The question is, did you finish your assignment?

We were in the mix when the award shows were given
Designer clothes in their best we all were hidden
Perfect smiles, front-row seats
Let the competition begin
Hoping to hear our names behind 'The winner is...'

And when we cross that bridge
And leave the road behind us
The question is, did you finish your assignment?

So let's prepare for the last award
When we stand before our Lord
To give an account of all our earthly deeds
I pray our motives were right
As we exit the backstage lights
Was it done for God
Did we finish our assignment?

And when we cross that bridge
And leave the road behind us
The question is, did you finish your assignment?

When we see him face to face
Let our work stand the test
When Jesus says well done
My child, you've done your best
I just want to see him smile
When he says welcome home, my child
I'm glad you finished your assignment

And when we cross that bridge
And leave the road behind us
The question is, did you finish your assignment?
