1 Remember your Creator while you are young.
As a child, know the Scriptures and seek out God’s truth
Remember your Creator while you are young.
Let Him have a way in the days of your youth.
2 Remember your Creator while you are young—
To remember our Creator means to love Him.
The Lord is the Creator, our source of life.
In the days of our youth we would love only Him.
3 We treasure the Word of God while we are young.
As a child, we may read it and read it again.
The Scriptures are able to make us wise,
Wise unto salvation in Jesus the Lord.
4 We come to the light when we open God’s Word,
But this light only shines when we really love God.
As we love Him and seek Him, God will open His Word,
So that light shines on ev‘ry page of the holy Word.
5 We like to spend time to get into the Word,
We mean business! We read it with diligent care,
We read and we pray, and we pray what we read—
In the days of our youth, we would take God’s Word in.
6 Remember your Creator while you are young.
From a child, know the Scriptures and seek out God’s truth.
Remember your Creator all your life long.
Let Him have a way all your days on the earth.
