The Hour Glass
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
No cares, no worries just fun and play
Knows that there will be other days
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Responsibilities, homework if you please
Busy, busy as little bees
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Dances, parties, stay out late
College will soon be the fate
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
College fun in the fall
Just out having a ball
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Down the isle in the dream gown
Wearing her royal crown
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Children gathered around
Like mother hen's clicking sound
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Wave good-bye, the last is gone
Have started their own family homes
Swiftly flows the sand
Bumping other grains as it lands
Empty nest, can now really rest,
Here comes God's best
