RCCG Hymn 733
Days and Moments Quickly Flying
"So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our heart unto wisdom." - Ps 90:12
Days and moments quickly flying Speed us onward to the dead Oh, how soon shall we be lying, Each within his narrow bed!
Jesus, merciful Redeemer Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice Wake, oh wake each idle dreamer Now to make th'eternal choice.
Mark we whither we are wending Ponder how we soon must go To inherit bliss un-ending Or eternity of woe.
Life passeth soon death draweth near Keep us, Lord till Thou appear With Thee to live with Thee to die With Thee to reign evermore.
As a shadow life is fleeting As a vapour so it flies, For the bygone years retreating Pardon grant, and make us wise.
Wise that we our days may number Strive and wrestle with our sin Stay not in our work nor slumber Till Thy holy rest we win.
Soon before the Judge all glorious We with all the dead shall stand Saviour, over death victorious Place us then on Thy right hand.
Life passeth soon death draweth near Keep us, Lord till Thou appear With Thee to live with Thee to die With Thee to reign evermore.
