But a moment, time is slowed,
hours stayed, hours hold.

Gaze in wonder, love divine,
age is ending, age and time.

Swift to leave it, swift to move,
lost reflection, simple truth.

Why the quiet, must it leave?
fading swiftly, finding sleep.

Always ever, passing still,
dare we quest, soon fullfill,

Fading swiftly, ever gone,
hold it fast, hold it long.

Great and dear, like sweet memory,
His children, age to come shall see.
