Mark, O my soul, the narrow bound
Of each revolving year;
How swift the weeks complete their round!
How short the months appear!
So fast eternity comes on,
And that important day
When all that mortal life hath done
God�s judgment shall survey.
Awake, O God, my careless heart
Its great concerns to see,
That I may act the Christian part
And give the year to thee.
So shall their course more grateful roll,
If future years arise;
Or this shall bear my waiting soul
To joy beyond the skies.
