Let The Beasts Their Breath Resign,
Strangers To The Life Divine;
Who Their God Can Never Know,
Let Their Spirit Downward Go.
You For Higher Ends Were Born,
You May All To God Return,
Dwell With Him Above The Sky;
Why Will You For Ever Die?
You, On Whom He Favours Showers,
You, Possest Of Nobler Powers,
You, Of Reason’s Powers Possest,
You, With Will And Memory Blest,
You, With Finer Sense Endued,
Creatures Capable Of God;
Noblest Of His Creatures, Why,
Why Will You For Ever Die?
You, Whom He Ordained To Be
Transcripts Of The Deity;
You, Whom He In Life Doth Hold;
You, For Whom Himself Was Sold;
You, On Whom He Still Doth Wait,
Whom He Would Again Create;
Made By Him, And Purchased, Why,
Why Will You For Ever Die?
You, Who Own His Record True,
You, His Chosen People, You,
You, Who Call The Saviour Lord,
You, Who Read His Written Word,
You, Who See The Gospel-Light,
Claim A Crown In Jesu’s Right;
Why Will You, Ye Christians, Why
Will The House Of Israel Die?
