See that you live e’en as you ought.
Hour by hour I yearly strive,
To show to men this dial’s alive.
If life’s chances you ignore,
Blame but yourself when you are poor.
O haste before the end of day
Impedes your work or stops your play.
O happy land rejoice and sing,
God bless the day, long live the King.
Have patience like me, and never complain,
