The Lord of Time


Time passes much too quickly as it marches on

Flowing into memories of what is said and done

Though we may try to seize the day, it will not be caught

In the mighty mills of God solace may be sought


He is the Lord of time He is the ruler of our ways

He is true Love divine, He is the ancient of days

He holds our moments in his hands 

Each moment fits within His plans

Everlasting is his mercy ever present is our praise


Time trudges on so slowly when life is running late

We kick against the goads of love as we anticipate

An end to suffering and strife, awaiting what’s to come

Our patience ever falters, We want to see it done


He is the Lord of time He is the ruler of our ways

He is true Love divine, He is the ancient of days

He holds our moments in his hands 

Each moment fits within His plans

Everlasting is his mercy ever present is our praise


And though the years run slow or fast

We will reach our journeys end at last

When we learn to rest, in His blessedness

And our souls on Christ are cast


He is the Lord of time He is the ruler of our ways

He is true Love divine, He is the ancient of days

He holds our moments in his hands 

Each moment fits within His plans

Everlasting is his mercy ever present is our praise
