Whence have wafted the fleeting
years when I was young? Far away have they flown. But youth er're lives yet Within this heart of mine. Wrinkles
of face; ages hath slowed this body so But within is youth's memories of how it was And how it is yet still.
Life
and time wind back as the fallen cages of old nature wanes. His paths we walk-- Not our own His youth we claim--
It has not flown.
Ah, what love for Him does flow As we so close to Him do grow, Just as pleased would
we be To be perfect as He.
