Vanity of Life

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns #CLXXXIX (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns First Line: Teach me the measure of my days Lyrics: 1 Teach me the measure of my days, Thou Maker of my frame! I would survey life's narrow space, And learn how frail I am. 2 A span is all that we can boast, An inch or two of time; Man is but vanity and dust, In all his flow'r and prime. 3 See the vain race of mortals move, Like shadows o'er the plain; They rage and strive, desire and love, But all the noise is vain. 4 Some walk in honour's gaudy show, Some dig for golden ore; They toil for heirs, they know not who, And strait are seen no more. 5 What should I wish, or wait for then, From creatures, earth, and dust? They make our expectations vain, And disappoint our trust. 6 Now I forbid my carnal hope, My fond desires recall; I give my mortal int'rest up, And make my God my All.
