The Clock of Life
The clock of life is wound but once,
And no man has the power,
To tell just when the hand will stop,
At late or early hour.
Now is the only time you own.
Live. Love. And toil with a will,
Place faith in tomorrow,
For the clock may then be still

    Though her smile is gone forever

    God has her in her keeping
    You have her in your heart.
