Yesterday has been lost.
Another chapter turned.
No-one can turn back too.
Against the flow of time.

Your youth soon counts the cost.
As your age slows you down.
Nobody had warned you.
As to what lay ahead.

Your heart soon feels the frost.
As Winters sun rises.
Nature soon goes to sleep.
And leaves you here to pray.

You have a perfect host.
A true friend in life's storm.
No-one can come as near.
As the risen Saviour.
