Teach Us to Number Our Days

Asks the psalmist of God,

"Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom." (Psalm 90:12)

Teach us to number our days
That we might have wise hearts
Grass withers, flowers will fade
Your word alone will last

Do not store up here
Things that don't last
Where your treasure is
There is your heart

Teach us to number our days
That we might have wise hearts
Grass withers, flowers will fade
Your word alone will last

Seek and strive, put first
The kingdom of God
All elso that you need
He will provide

Teach us to number our days
That we might have wise hearts
Grass withers, flowers will fade
Your word alone will last

Pain and struggle now
Will not compare
To the glory then
We will all share

Teach us to number our days
That we might have wise hearts
Grass withers, flowers will fade
Your word alone will last
(Coda)
Your word alone will last.
