Refrain: Eternity! Eternity! Will you dwell with Christ in eternity? What is this life but a fleeting day? Soon death will come with a stern decree; Then one by one we must pass away, And change from time to eternity. A dial true is the Book divine, Its hands approach with a certainty The tolling point in the death of time, The solemn change to eternity. Oh, joyful day to the faithful soul Who walks with Christ in His purity! Life’s battle fought and the vict’ry won, He shouts from time to eternity.

Time onward flows like a river vast,
While age on age it has borne to the sea;
And down this stream we have come at last,
To see time end in eternity.
- Refrain:
  Eternity! Eternity!
  Will you dwell with Christ in eternity?
What is this life but a fleeting day?
Soon death will come with a stern decree;
Then one by one we must pass away,
And change from time to eternity.
A dial true is the Book divine,
Its hands approach with a certainty
The tolling point in the death of time,
The solemn change to eternity.
Oh, joyful day to the faithful soul
Who walks with Christ in His purity!
Life’s battle fought and the vict’ry won,
He shouts from time to eternity.
