Where Livest Thou?

1 Where livest thou? In pleasures of the world?
Or in that realm whence Satan's darts are hurled?
Choose now to follow with the sons of God;
Far better this than where the great have trod.

2 Where livest thou? In malice and in strife?
Where darkness veils and mars the righteous life?
Choose now to make a living sacrifice -
'Tis better thus; for we belong to Christ.

3 Where livest thou? There is a place to stay -
'Tis in the Christ, the true and living way!
Within His kingdom labor while you may;
Hear what He says, in loyal trust obey.
