Where Does Time Go?
Where does Time go?
I'd like to know
When in Good Times you're living?
So swift the Day,
Soon gone away
What is it's haste in leaving?
And when alas,
Time'll hardly pass
Why then must it drag it's feet?
When sad or alone,
So far from home
Why linger long to complete?
Is Time our Friend,
Or more a Fiend
With whom we daily contend?
Can we transverse,
For Better, not Worse
Time to it's ultimate end?
Then 'twill be gone,
This Time I'm on
Never to worry again,
Superceeded,
Then unneeded--
Eternity I'll span!
LORD, make me wise,
Time not despise
Help me to number my days,
That when it's o'er,
On Eternity's Shore
I may be to give Thee Praise!
