Ere Mountains Reared Their Forms Sublime,
Or Heaven And Earth In Order Stood
Before The Birth Of Ancient Time,
From Everlasting Thou Art God.
A Thousand Ages, In Their Flight,
With Thee Are As A Fleeting Day;
Past, Present, Future, To Thy Sight
At Once Their Various Scenes Display.
But Our Brief Life’s A Shadowy Dream,
A Passing Thought, That Soon Is O’er,
That Fades With Morning’s Earliest Beam,
And Fills The Musing Mind No More.
To Us, O Lord, The Wisdom Give
Each Passing Moment So To Spend,
That We At Length With Thee May Live,
Where Life And Bliss Shall Never End.
