Hymnal: LH1855 #72 (1855) First Line: Go thou, in life's fair morning Lyrics: 1 Go thou, in life's fair morning--
Go in the bloom of youth--
And buy, for thine adorning,
The precious pearl of truth:
Secure this heav'nly treasure,
And bind it on thy heart;
And let not worldly pleasure
E'er cause it to depart.
2 Go, while the day-star shineth;
Go, while thy heart is light;
Go, ere thy strength declineth,
While every sense is bright:
Sell all thou hast, and buy it;
'Tis worth all earthly things--
Rubies, and gold, and diamonds,
Scepters, and crowns of kings.
3 Go, ere the clouds of sorrow
Steal o'er the bloom of youth;
Defer not til tomorrow:
Go now, and buy the truth.
Go, seek thy great Creator,
Learn early to be wise:
Go, place upon his altar
A morning sacrifice.
