Hymn/Song Information

While we with fear and hope survey This youthful




While we with fear and hope survey
This youthful blooming throng,
And little know th'eventful way
Their steps may pass away,—


One day is as a thousand years,
Eternal God, to thee,
And present to thine eye appears
Their whole futurity.


Thou seest temptation’s subtle thread,
Or torture's fiery test:
Mid scenes of pleasure, or of dread,
Screen thou th'unguarded breast.


Saviour! Through earth portentous change,
And dangers yet untrod,
Where'er they rest, where'er they range,
Be thou their present God.
