I Constant Care Will Take,
Lest Sinful Words They Hear;
My Lips Their Silence Shall Not Break
While Wicked Men Are Near.
I Dumb And Silent Stood,
No Words Of Mine Were Heard;
I Even Refrained From Speaking Good,
Till Sorrow’s Deeps Were Stirred.
My Heart Was All On Fire,
With Burning Thoughts Suppressed;
My Tongue Was Loosed, My Soul’s Desire
I Then To God Addressed.
My End, Lord, Make Me Know,
My Days, How Soon They Fail;
And To My Thoughtful Spirit Show
How Weak I Am And Frail.
To Thy Eternal Thought
My Days Are But A Span;
To Thee My Years Appear As Naught,
A Breath At Best Is Man.
Man Lives In Empty Show,
His Anxious Care Is Vain,
He Hoards His Wealth, And Does Not Know
Who Shall Possess His Gain.
