Time flies and life passes Already I seem to hear the last trumpet singing Oh, come out of the grave You've scattered ashes and bones Oh, rise again, you souls
Today we are born and tomorrow we die Time flies; life passes Today we appear and tomorrow we're gone Time flies; life passes Today we are born and tomorrow we die Time flies; life passes Today we appear and tomorrow we're gone Time flies; life passes
Oh, rise and tell us, truly If we should have served This world or the king in heaven To open our eyes to the truth That life is but a breath of wind that passes in a moment
This mortal life has wings to fly so fast and passes at such speed The wind is thunderbolts
The day is swiftly kidnapped and likewise, the night Winter and summer fade ?? to eternity Time which will not endure devours us and measures our span
All life is given from heaven And then is whisked away
