LyicsCOME, let us anew
Our journey pursue-
Roll round with the year,
And never stand still till the Master appear;
His adorable will
Let us gladly fulfil,
And our talents improve
By the patience of hope, and the labor of love.
Our life is a dream;
Our time, as a stream,
Glides swiftly away,
And the fugitive moment refuses to stay:
The arrow is flown;
The moment is gone;
The millennial year
Rushes on to our view, and eternity's near.
O that each, in the day
Of his coming, may say,
"I have fought my way through
I have finish'd the work thou didst give me to do;"
O that each from his Lord,
May receive the glad word,
"Well and faithfully done;
Enter into my joy, and sit down on my throne."
