As Shadows Cast By Cloud And Sun,
Flit O’er The Summer Grass,
So, In Thy Sight, Almighty One,
Earth’s Generations Pass.
Flitting Away, Flitting Away,
Flitting Like The Shadows Away ;
Flitting Away, Flitting Away,
Flitting Like The Shadows Away.
And While The Years, In Endless Host,
Come Passing Swiftly On,
The Brightest Name That Earth Can Boast
But Glistens, And Is Gone.
Yet Doth The Star Of Bethlehem Shed
A Lustre Pure And Sweet,
And Still It Leads, As Once It Led,
To The Messiah’s Feet.
O Father, May That Holy Star
Grow Every Year More Bright,
And Shed Its Glorious Beams Afar
To Fill The World With Light.
