Time and Testimony

"Soon... we fly away. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.... And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish Thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it" (Psalm 90:12,17).

Value every single day,
Considering its worth.
For very soon we fly away,
Departing from this earth.

Thus mindful of our destiny
To stand before our Lord,
Let's seize each opportunity,
And reap its rich reward.

So let this be our daily norm
And focus of our duty:
That each day we may be conformed
More to our Savior's beauty.

For in this way, and only thus,
Our testimony stands,
And God establishes in us
The labor of our hands.
