God has His best things for the few
who dare to stand the test.
He has His other things for those
who will not have His best.
Refrain:
The good is the enemy of the best
Without His best there is no rest
Verse 2.
And others make the highest choice,
But when by trials pressed,
They shrink, they yield,
They shun the Cross,
And so they lose His best.
Refrain:
The good is the enemy of the best
Without His best there is no rest
