Swiftly Fading

Author: Rev. J. B. Atchinson Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #46 (1889) First Line: Like the bud that quickly blossoms Refrain First Line: Like the stars that fade in sunlight Lyrics: 1 Like the bud that quickly blossoms, Like the blossom soon decayed,— Like the grass that quickly withers, Like the leaf we rapid fade: Like a swift ship on the ocean, Like a swift departing day,— Like a sleep that is but transient,— So we quickly pass away. Refrain: Like the stars that fade in sunlight, Like a raindrop in the sea, So may we, O blessed Saviour, Pass away to dwell with Thee. 2 Like a snowflake in the sunshine, Like the white foam-crested wave,— Like the mists of early morning, So we’re passing to the grave: Like the swiftly passing shadow, Like a tale that’s quickly told,— Swifter than the weaver’s shuttle,— So we all are growing old. [Refrain] 3 Like a dream that’s soon forgotten, Like a meteor in the sky,— Like a postman hastening onward, So man hastens on to die: Like the rapid flowing river,— Like a brief watch in the night,— Like the bubble of a moment,— So we soon pass out of sight. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Like the bud that quickly blossoms]
