Not In Vain

This life is but a vapour

A flicker in a flame

Yet no less is it’s beauty

Though it will pass away

Like snow upon the mountain

Like grass upon the plain

A season is it’s purpose

This life is not in vain

Each one of us is precious

And wonderfully made

And what we may call weakness

He’s woven in our frame

And it is His good pleasure

To give, to take away

Lord help me know the truth that

This life is not in vain

And on my final journey

Into my final day

As I am growing impatient

To see You face to face

To dwell with you the glory

No tears, no fear, no pain,

Then I will fully know that

That this life was not in vain

Yes one day I will know that

This life was not in vain
