Our Days on this earth
are only a few.
Like a drop in the ocean
so bright and so blue.
In our youth we look to the future
with dreams that's so bright.
Not really realizing
God keeps us always in sight.
He guides our path
with such a gentle hand.
Gives us the courage we need
to take our stand.
We shove that little voice aside
and say - "I have plenty of time."
God with His gentle patience says
"I'll wait - I don't mind."
As time slides on
and we daily stray,
God's gentle voice says
"That's O.K. - I'll have my day."
When His hand
constantly brings us in line,
We look back and say
"I've wasted so much time."
Come to Me early
Our God pleads.
"I have for you to plant
Many, Many seeds."
