Behold The Rapid March Of Time!
’Tis Passing Swift Away:
Eternity Is Drawing Nigh,
And That Last Judgment Day.
Since Every Moment Bears Thy Life
Still Closer To Its End,
In View Of Thine Immortal Soul
Each Moment Thou Shouldst Spend.
Prepare To Meet The Lord Thy God!
For Him Thou Soon Shalt See,
And As Thou Standest At Thy Death,
Forever Thou Shalt Be.
Forsake The Trifling Things Of Earth,
For They Cannot Abide;
Their Pleasure Soon Shall Fade And Leave
Thy Soul Unsatisfied.
Thou Hast But One Short Life To Live,
Oh, Live It For The Lord!
Eternal Treasures Thou Shalt Gain,
This World Cannot Afford.
Be Ever Mindful Of Thy Words,
Thy Thoughts And Actions Too,
For In The Judgment Everything
The Lord Will Bring In View.
The Deepest Motives Of Thy Heart
He Sees With Piercing Eye,
So Strive In All Thou Art And Dost
Thy God To Glorify.
Is Thy Heart Perfect With Thy God,
And Pleasing In His Sight?
Dost Thou Walk In His Will Each Day,
Ever Keeping In The Light?
O Soul, This Is The Only Way
Salvation To Ensure!
So Ever Earnest Thou Shouldst Be
As Long As Life Endures.
