Our lives are like a summer day

Lyrics

1. Our lives are like a summer day where daylight follows dawn, And soon the time will fade away and is forever gone.
2. Our lives run out with quickened pace, so let us sow the seeds That we may reach the time of grace to which the harvest leads.
3. Rise early therefore, while it’s light and work as best you may, So that you labor not by night thru idling day away.
4. He who has sown the seeds of love will surely blessings bring, Upon himself from God above and death will lose its sting.
Refrain: Soon the day, the day will disappear, which the Lord, which the Lord gave us here. What at eve is wilted, worn, blossomed in the early morn.
