HYMN 169. Redeeming of Time.
Eccles. 12.1, 7.
REmember thy Creator now,in these thy younger daies:Before the year and day draw nearwhen pleasure quite decays.Then shall the dust return to earth,to earth from whence it came:The spirit then goes back agento God that gave the same.
13, 14.
Now let us hear the end of all,that Scripture doth declare,Oh fear the Lord, and keep his word,which should be all our care.For every work, both good and bad,with every secret thing,That here have past, from first to last,will God to judgment bring.
Eph. 5.15, 16.
See that ye walk exactly then,and not as fools, but wise;And still redeem your precious timebecause ill daies arise.
