THE TIME IS SHORT.

By Horatius Bonar

THE time is short! If thou wouldst work for God, it must be now; If thou wouldst win the garland for thy brow, Redeem the time.
Shake off earth's sloth! Go forth with staff in hand while yet 'tis day; Set out with girded loins upon the way. Up! linger not!
Fold not thy hands! What has the pilgrim of the cross and crown To do with luxury or couch of down? On, pilgrim, on!
—Horatius Bonar.
