"Life Clock"
And no man has the power
To tell just when the hands will stop
Too late or early hour.
To lose one's wealth is sad indeed,
To lose one's health is more
To lose one's soul is such a loss
As no man can restore,
The present only is our own
Live, Love, toil with will
Place no faith in tomorrow
For the clock may then be still.
