The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#510

510. Come, let us anew our journey pursue

1 Come, let us anew our journey pursue,
Roll round with the year,
And never stand still till the Master appear;
And never stand still till the Master appear.

2 His adorable will let us gladly fulfill,
And our talents improve
By the patience of hope, and the labor of love.

3 Our life as a dream, our time as a stream,
Glides swiftly away,
And the fugitive moment refuses to stay.

4 The arrow is flown, the moment is gone;
The millennial year
Rushes on to our view, and eternity's here.

5 O, that each in the day of His coming may say,
"I have fought my way through;
I have finished the work thou didst give me to do."

6 O, that each from his Lord may receive the glad word,
"Well and faithfully done!
Enter into my joy, and sit down on my throne."
