Author: John Needham Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: The time draws near, my soul, when thou Lyrics: 1 The time draws near, my soul, when thou Thy last account must give: When thy whole life shall be surveyed By Him who bid thee live. 2 How many talents, O my God, Hast thou bestowed on me? But yet how little can be found, That I have done for Thee? 3 My health, my time, my worldly store, And Thy more precious Word Thy talents are; for these must I Account to Thee my Lord. 4 Much of my time, alas! I’ve lost, And much have I misspent; How careless of my grand concerns, On trifles how intent? 5 How little good have I received? How little have I done? How oft my feet have trod the paths I know I ought to shun? 6 Pity my weakness, gracious God, My sins thro’ Christ forgive; Teach me henceforth not to myself But unto Thee to live. 7 O may the slothful servant’s doom My holy care excite: Each talent may I well improve, And in Thy work delight. 8 Then like a faithful steward I Shall stand before Thy seat; Let me but hear, "Well done," at last, My bliss will be complete.
