Journey

Continuing the idea of one of my old hymns on Sundays:

My life is like a railway –
I travel on each day.
The bit that’s gone before now
for ever’s passed away.
I can’t go back,
so help me spend
my time much better ’til the end.
Yesterday won’t come back,
life is like a railtrack.
‘Now’ is passing quickly, soon it’s gone,
then tomorrow comes – the track goes on.

I don’t know how much further:
– much fun and lots to learn,
but if I waste this morning,
‘today’ cannot return.
There’s heaps to do,
you’re never bored,
when Jesus is your Guard and Lord.
Yesterday won’t come back,
life is like a railtrack.
‘Now’ is passing quickly, soon it’s gone,
then tomorrow comes – the track goes on.

Tune: ‘Tenderness’ by Adoniram J Gordon  (‘O the love that sought me!)
