Life at best is very brief

- Life at best is very brief,
- like the falling of a leaf,
- like the binding of a sheaf,
- be in time!
- Fleeting days are telling fast
- that the die will soon be cast,
- and the fatal line be passed,
- be in time!
- Be in time, be in time,
- while the voice of Jesus calls you,
- be in time!
- If in sin you longer wait,
- you may find no open gate,
- and your cry be just too late,
- be in time!
- Fairest flowers soon decay,
- youth and beauty pass away,
- oh, you have not long to stay,
- be in time!
- While the Spirit bids you come,
- sinner, do not longer roam,
- lest you seal your hopeless doom, be in time!
- Time is gliding swiftly by,
- death and judgement drawing nigh,
- to the arms of Jesus fly,
- be in time!
- Oh, I pray you, count the cost,
- ere the fatal line be crossed,
- and your soul in hell be lost!
- Be in time!
- Sinner, heed the warning voice,
- make the Lord your final choice,
- then all heaven will rejoice,
- be in time!
- Come from darkness into light,
- come, let Jesus make you right,
- come, and start for heaven tonight,
- be in time! ......
