Time continues,
As our days wind down.
Tick tot, time's very words, tick tot,
Time's only sound.
But time itself is on the clock,
For it too has an end.
For time had a birth,
On the day of man's sin.
The Angel will declare,
That time is no more.
As he puts one foot on the water,
And one on the shore.
Yes, time has an end,
Just like you and I.
And like all of us who are born,
One day, we die.
Time is not to be counted on forever,
Time is only for today.
Time runs just like the rivers,
Passing where we stand,
But always moving away.
Unlike us,
Time has no soul,
Its simply the gatekeeper,
For the young and the old.
Make well of your time,
For you both shall pass.
Treat each day you're given,
As it were your last.
