Use Time Wisely
Lord,
Amid my hurry and my haste,
let me be slow but time not waste.
For time, is yours alone to give,
I must use it wisely while I live.
Time, is like an arrow once let fly,
that makes it's way across the sky.
Retrieve I can't, once it is gone,
nor can I save or to others loan.
For the time remaining allotted me,
may it be used dear Lord, for thee.
That as in life where ere I wander,
time given me I will not squander.
