LyicsTIME is winging us away
To our eternal home;
Life is but a winter's day-
A journey to the tomb:
Youth and vigor soon will flee,
Blooming beauty lose its charms;
All that's mortal soon shall be
Enclosed in death's cold arms.
Time is winging us away
To our eternal home;
Life is but a winter's day-
A journey to the tomb:
But the children shall enjoy
Health and beauty, soon, above,
Far beyond the world's alloy,
Secure in Jesus' love.
