EN 1287 Days and Moments Quickly Flying

Ps.78.39

Versi Version 1

1

Days and moments quickly flying

Blend the living with the dead;

Soon our bodies will be lying

Each within its narrow bed.

2

Soon our souls to God Who gave them

Will have sped their rapid flight:

Able now by grace to save them,

O that, while we can, we might!

3

Jesus, infinite Redeemer,

Maker of this mighty frame,

Teach, O teach us to remember

What we are, and whence we came.

4

Whence we came and whither wending,

Soon we must through darkness go,

To inherit bliss unending,

Or eternity of woe.

5

Jesus, merciful Redeemer,

Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice;

Wake, O wake each idle dreamer

Now to make the eternal choice.

6

As a shadow, life is fleeting;

As a vapor so it flies;

For the old year now retreating

Pardon grant, and make us wise;

7

Wise that we our days may number,

Strive and wrestle with our sin,

Say not in our work, nor slumber

Till Thy glorious rest we win.

8

Soon before the Judge all glorious

We with all the dead shall stand:

Savior, over death victorious,

Place us then on Thy right hand.
