Before time’s dawn and earth God made -Gen.1:1
Amidst eternal night -Gen.1:2
When darkness had on earth to fade
When God spoke forth the light -Gen.1:3
But with the light came time to earth -Gen.1:5
The same that ages man -Ps.90:4,10
For God had known before his birth
Man’s sin would spoil the plan -Gen.3:6
Now crucial is this time to all
Like sand, life seems to flow -Isa.66:8
Within a trice, nations can fall
Or melt away like snow -Isa.40:6
God’s image dwells within a frame -Gen.2:7
In modest forms of clay -Gen.1:26
Made righteous through His Holy Flame -Mt.3:12
We’ll see God’s face one day -Rev.22:4
Alone till then, the flesh grows old -Ps.103:5
Through sin, grows frail and sick -Deut.24:16
Yet time, man’s spirit cannot hold -Hos.13:14
But stays forever quick -Mt.10:26
For that of God, can never age -Gen.3:22
Nor ever see decay -Ro.8:21
To flesh alone, is time a cage -Ro.7:24
That Christ will free one day
Through Jesus’ hand, the sky will fold -Isa.34:4
Then time will be no more
The world of this must now be told -Mt.28:19
Must seek Salvation’s Door -Jn.14:6
For Christ the Door, will set us free -Ro.6:3-4
Will keep from sin and shame -Ro.6:18
Then when this age has ceased to be
We’ll pass the Judgement Flame -1Co.3:13 PTO.
