What Are We For?

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13190 First Line: Why have we lips, if not to sing Refrain First Line: What are we for? What are we for? Lyrics: 1 Why have we lips, if not to sing The praises of our heav’nly king? Why have we hearts, if not to love, Our Father and our friend above? Refrain: What are we for? What are we for? What are we for? What are we for, but to serve the Lord, With every deed, and thought and word? 2 Why were our curious bodies made, And every part in order laid? Why, but that each of us might stand A living wonder from His hand? [Refrain] 3 Why have we souls, if not to know The God from whom our mercies flow? Sure this can never be our lot, Like senseless brutes, to know Him not! [Refrain] 4 Why have we life? If not to gain Immortal life, ’tis worse than vain; This is the end for which ’twas giv’n— We live on earth, to live in Heav’n. [Refrain] 5 Why did the Savior leave the sky, Hang on a cross, and bleed and die? And why are kind persuasions sent To call and win us to repent? [Refrain] 6 Surely it is—that robed in white And made well-pleasing in His sight, Our souls may join the happy throng, And sing the everlasting song. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Why have we lips, if not to sing]
