Few are the Days

Author: Charles P. Jones Hymnal: HFS1977 #449 (1977) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Job 14 First Line: Few are the days of man on earth Lyrics: 1 Few are the days of man on earth, Whate'er his lot, where'er his birth; Swift as a post they pass away, Nor have we pow'r to make them stay. 2 Yet while we daily pilgrims go, Great are our troubles here below, And often, while we have our breath, We long for rest, the rest of death. 3 Great God, the God of earth and sky, 'Tis Thou canst bless us from on high; 'Tis Thou canst make the burden light, And make our dying moments bright. 4 Then blessed Christ we look to Thee From ev'ry ill to set us free; Dwell Thou within each troubled heart, And strength divine to all impart.

Farewell! farewell! farewell! 3 Farewell! farewell! farewell! But only short farewell! We're all for Death's land bound, Others will soon come 'round, And bid us sad farewell! How soon there's none can tell! Belov'd, we'll meet thee soon! We're passing one by one; O then a short farewell! O then a short farewell!
