Circle of Days

 

Day after day passes on-

Year after year the time is gone

With pleasant pursuits and recreations

What is the fruit of your occupations?

When facinations lose their flavor

When compelling causes lose favor

In your eyes- what will you do?

Are you satisfied by what you pursue?

 

Round and round in a circle of unsatisfying days

In silence you seek- now see what Jesus says

You'll never thirst is the promise He never betrays

When Jesus is your center- He satisfies in every way.

 

Are you getting satisfaction

From diversions and distractions?

what is left once time has passed

Are they real and will they last?

Are a sense of horrible hallowness

And a sense of woeful weariness

Results of spending time and strength

On what will disappear at length?

 

Round and round in a circle of unsatisfying days

In silence you seek- now see what Jesus says

You'll never thirst is the promise He never betrays

When Jesus is your center- He satisfies in every way.
