Abide not in the realm of dreams lyrics

1. Abide not in the realm of dreams,

O man, however fair it seems;

But with clear eye the present scan,

And hear the call of God and man.

2. Think not in sleep to fold thy hands,

Forgetful of thy Lord’s commands;

From duty’s claims no life is free,

Behold, today hath need of thee.

3. The present hour allots thy task,

For present strength and patience ask;

And trust His love whose sure supply

Meets all thy need abundantly.
