And shall I waste my ebbing sand,
And careless view departing day,
And throw my inch of time away?
2 Eternity, tremendous sound!
To guilty souls a dreadful wound;
But O! if Christ and heaven be mine,
How sweet the accents! how divine!
3 Be this my chief, my only care,
My high pursuit, my ardent prayer,
An interest in the Savioru's blood,
My pardon seal'd and peace with God.
4 But should my brightest hopes be vain,
The rising doubt, how sharp its pain!
My fears, O gracious God, remove,
Confirm my title to thy love.

From guilt and error set me free,
And guide me safe to heaven and thee. Languages: English

Eternity
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #133 (1890) Topics: Eternity; God Eternity; Eternity; God Eternity First Line: Great God! how infinite art thou! Lyrics: 1 Great God! how infinite art thou!
What worthless worms are we!
Let the whole race of creatures bow,
And pay their praise to thee.
2 Thy throne eternal ages stood,
Ere seas or stars were made;
Thou art the ever-living God,
Were all the nations dead.
3 Eternally, with all its years,
Stands present in thy view;
To thee there's nothing old appears
Great God! there's nothing new.
4 Our lives through various scenes are drawn,
And vexed with trifling cares;
While thine eternal thought moves on
Thine undisturbed affairs.
5 Great God! how infinite art thou!
What worthless worms are we!
Let the whole race of creatures bow,
And pay their praise to thee. Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
Eternity
A prayer for seriousness, in prospect of eternity
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DXLIX (1792) Topics: Time and Eternity; Eternity Time and eternity; Prayer in prospect of Eternity First Line: Thou God of glorious majesty! Lyrics: 1 Thou God of glorious majesty!
To thee, against myself, to thee,
A sinful worm, I cry:
An half-awaken'd child of man,
An heir of endless bliss or pain,
A sinner born to die.
2 Lo! on a narrow neck of land,
’Twixt two unbounded seas I stand,
Yet how insensible!
A point of time a moment’s space,
Removes me to yon' heavenly place,
Or— shuts me up in hell.
3 O God, my inmost soul convert,
And deeply on my thoughtful heart
Eternal things impress;
Give me to feel their solemn weight,
And save me ere it be too late,
Wake me to righteousness.
4 Before me place, in dread array,
The pomp of that tremendous day,
When thou with clouds shalt come
To judge the nations at thy bar;
And tell me, Lord, shall I be there
To meet a joyful doom!
5 Be this my one great bus'ness here,
With holy trembling, holy fear
To make my calling sure!
Thine utmost council to fulfil,
And suffer all thy righteous will,
And to the end endure!
6 Then, Savior, then my soul receive,
Transported from this vale, to live
And reign with thee above;
Where faith is sweetly lost in sight,
And hope in full supreme delight
And everlasting love. Languages: English
A prayer for seriousness, in prospect of eternity
Death and Eternity
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DL (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Death And eternity; Eternity Death and eternity First Line: My thoughts, that often mount the skies Lyrics: 1 My thoughts, that often mount the skies,
Go, search the world beneath,
Where nature all in ruin lies,
And owns her sovereign, death.
2 The tyrant how he triumphs here*,
His trophies spread around!
And heaps of dust and bones appear
Thro' all the hollow ground.
3 Those skulls, what ghastly figures now!
How loathsome to the eyes!
These are the heads we lately knew
So beauteous and so wise.
4 But where the souls those deathless things,
That left their dying clay?
My thoughts, now stretch out all your wings,
And trace eternity!
5 O that unfathomable sea!
Those deeps without a shore!
Where living waters gently play,
Or fiery billows roar.
6 There we shall swim in heavenly bliss,
Or sink in flaming waves,
While the pale carcase breathless lies
Among the silent graves.
7 "Prepare us, Lord, for thy right hand,
"Then come the joyful day,
"Come, death, and some celestial band,
"To bear our souls away." Languages: English
Death and Eternity
God of eternity! from thee
Author: Doddridge Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #912 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Time and Eternity Lyrics: 1 God of eternity! from thee
Did infant time its being draw;
Moments and days, and months and years,
Revolve by thine unvaried law.
2 Silent and swift they glide away;
Steady and strong the current flows,
Lost in eternity's wide sea,
The boundless gulf from whence it rose.
3 With it the thoughtless sons of men
Before the rapid stream are borne
On to their everlasting home,
Whence not one soul can e'er return.
4 Great Source of wisdom! teach our hearts
To know the price of every hour,
That time may bear us on to joys
Beyond its measure and its power.
God of eternity! from thee
Man's mortality, and Christ's eternity; or, Saints die, but Christ and the Church lives
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #178 (1786) Topics: Christ the eternal Creator; God Eternal and Man mortal; Man mortal and Christ eternal; Mortality and God's eternity; Christ the eternal Creator; God Eternal and Man mortal; Man mortal and Christ eternal; Mortality and God's eternity First Line: It is the Lord our Saviour's hand Lyrics: 1 It is the Lord our Saviour's hand
Weakens our strength amidst the race;
Disease and death at his command
Arrest us, and cut short our days.
2 Spare us, O Lord, aloud we pray,
Nor let our sun go down at noon;
Thy years are one eternal day,
And must thy children die so soon?
3 Yet in the midst of death and grief
This thought our sorrow should assuage;
"Our Father and our Saviour live;
"Christ is the same through every age."
4 'Twas he this earth's foundation laid;
Heaven is the building of his hand;
This earth grows old, these heavens shall fade;
And all be chang'd at his command.
5 The starry curtains of the sky,
Like garments, shall be laid aside;
But still thy throne stands firm on high,
Thy church forever must abide.
6 Before thy face thy church shall live;
And on thy throne thy children reign;
This dying world shall they survive,
And the dead saints be rais'd again. Scripture: Psalm 102:23-28 Languages: English
Man's mortality, and Christ's eternity; or, Saints die, but Christ and the Church lives
