Let Thoughtless Thousands Choose the Road
Author: Joseph Hoskins Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #608 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Let thoughtless thousands choose the road
That leads the soul away from God;
This happiness, dear Lord, be mine,
To live and die entirely Thine.
2 On Christ, by faith, I fain would live,
From Him my life, my all, receive,
To Him devote my fleeting hours,
Serve Him alone with all my pow'rs.
3 Christ is my everlasting All;
To Him I look, on Him I call;
He will my ev'ry want supply
In time and thro' eternity.
4 Soon will the Lord, my Life, appear;
Soon shall I end my trials here,
Leave sin and sorrow, death and pain.
To live is Christ, to die is gain.
5 Soon will the saints in glory meet,
Soon walk through every golden street,
And sing on every blissful plain:
To live is Christ, to die is gain.
Amen. Topics: The Last Things Judgment Scripture: Philippians 1:21 Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM
