Take time for friends . . it is the source of happiness. Take time for work ... it is the price of success. Take time to think it is the source of power. Take time to read it is the foundation of knowledge. Take time to laugh it is the singing that helps with life’s loads. Take time to dream it hitches the soul to the stars. Take time to play it is the secret of youth. Take time to worship ... it is the highway to reverence. Take time to pray it helps to bring God nearer and washes the dust of earth from you eyes. Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise; redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15 16

O God, our help in ages past. Out hope for years to come. Our shelter from the stormy blast. And our eternal home. Before the hills in order stood. Or earth received her frame. From everlasting Thou are God, To endless years the same. A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone. Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. Time, like an ever-rolling stream. Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. O God. our help in ages past. Our hope for years to come. Be Thou our guard while troubles last. And our eternal home. John B Herbert
