Life Is A Span, A Fleeting Hour

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9515 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Life is a span, a fleeting hour, How soon the vapor flies! Man is a tender, transient flower, That e’en in blooming dies! 2 Death spreads like winter’s frozen arms, And beauty smiles no more; Ah! where are now those rising charms Which pleased our eyes before? 3 The once loved form, now cold and dead, Each mournful thought employs; And nature weeps, her comforts fled, And withered all her joys. 4 But wait the interposing gloom And lo, winter flies! And dressed in beauty’s fairest bloom The flowery tribes arise. 5 Hope looks beyond the bounds of time; When what we now deplore, Shall rise in full immortal prime, And bloom to fade no more. 6 Then cease, fond nature, cease thy tears, Religion points on high; There everlasting spring appears, And joys that cannot die.

Ah! where are now those rising charms, Which pleas'd our eyes before? 3 The once lov'd form, now cold and dead, Each mournful thought employs; And nature weeps her comforts fled, And wither'd all her joys. 4 But wait the interposing gloom, And lo! stern winter flies; And, drest in beauty's fairest bloom, The flow'ry tribes arise. 5 Hope looks beyond the bounds of time, When what we now deplore Shall rise in full immortal prime, And bloom to fade no more. 6 Then cease, fond nature! cease thy tears; Religion points on high: There everlasting spring appears, And joys that cannot die.
