Author: Winkworth Hymnal: Calvary Songs #142 (1875) Hymnal Title: Calvary Songs First Line: Time, thou speedest on but slowly Lyrics: 1 Time, thou speedest on but slowly,
Hours, how tardy is your pace!
Ere with him, the High and Holy,
I hold converse face to face.
Here is naught but care and mourning;
Comes a joy, it will not stay;
Fairly shines the sun at dawning,
Night will soon o'ercloud the day,
Night will soon o'ercloud the day.
2 Onward, then, not long I wander
Ere my Saviour comes for me,
And with him abiding yonder,
All his glory I shall see.
Oh, the music and the singing
Of the host redeemed by love!
Oh, the hallelujahs ringing
Through the halls of light above!
Through the halls of light above! Languages: English Tune Title: [Time, thou speedest on but slowly]
