Author: Edward Caswall Hymnal: Laudes Domini #609 (1888) First Line: Days and moments quickly flying Lyrics: 1 Days and moments quickly flying
Blend the living with the dead;
Soon shall we who sing be lying,
Each within our narrow bed.
2 Soon our souls to God who gave them
Will have sped their rapid flight;
Able now by grace to save them,
Oh, that while we can we might!
3 Jesus, infinite Redeemer,
Maker of this mighty frame;
Teach, oh, 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. Scripture: James 4:14 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. SYLVESTER
