Shadows

By Jane Taylor

Like shadows gliding o'er the plain, Or clouds that roll successive on, Man's busy generations pass, And while we gaze, their forms are gone.
We live, we die; behold the sum Of good or ill on life's fair page. Alike in God's all-seeing eye, The infant's day, the patriarch's age.
O Father, in whose mighty hand The boundless years and ages lie, Teach us Thy boon of life to prize, And use the moments as they fly. —Jane Taylor.
