LyicsO come in life's gay morning,
Ere in thy sunny way
The flowers of hope have wither'd,
And sorrow end thy day.
Come, while from joy's bright fountain
The streams of pleasure flow,
Come ere thy buoyant spirits
Have felt the blight of wo.
"Remember thy Creator"
Now in thy youthful days,
And he will guide thy footsteps
Through life's uncertain maze.
"Remember thy Creator,"
He calls in tones of love,
And offers deathless glories
In brighter worlds above.
And in the hour of sadness,
When earthly joys depart,
His love shall be thy solace,
And cheer thy dropping heart.
And when life's storm is over,
And thou from earth art free,
Thy God will be thy portion
Throughout eternity.
