the clock of life is wound but once
And no one has the power,
To tell just where the hands will stop
At late, or early hour.

To lose one's wealth is sad indeed,
To lose one's health is more --
Tolose one's Soul is such a loss
As no one can restore.

The present only is our own
To seek to do GOD'S will,
Tomorrow holds no promise, for
The Clock may then be still.
 
Good post Argokid.

Here is a related quote from A.W. Tozer regarding the importance of us "redeeming the time" - Ephesians 5:16.

"We who live in this nervous age would be wise to meditate on our lives and our days long and often before the face of God and on the edge of eternity. For we are made for eternity as certainly as we are made for time, and as responsible moral beings we must deal with both."
- A.W. Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy, pg 47
