Another year has rolled by The time flies so quickly by, This year which is to pass by May be the last year for some, It's Thy mercy kept us through Have we been benefited? We should ask, are we prepared If we are called home this year?
This world is a battle ground, Thousands are falling down dead, The arrows of death that fly Can be sent to me, to you When the word is preached, we hear Help our hearts to meditate, Eternity's close at hand We are standing on the brink.
If we are saved from our sins By the grace of God divine We shall hear Him say, `Come home,` May we see His face in heav'n; For Thy people here on earth Grant us mercy this new year; The year that's more full of joy Is the one that sees them home. Amen.
