Death

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCIII (1791) First Line: Vain Man thy fond Pursuits forbear Lyrics: 1 Vain Man thy fond Pursuits forbear; Repent; thy end is nigh, Death at the farthest can't be far; Oh, think before thou die! 2 Reflect, thou hast a Soul to save, Thy Sins how high they Mount! What are thy Hopes beyond thy Grave? How stands that dark Account! 3 Death enters, and there's no Defence, His Time there's none can tell, He'll in a Moment call thee hence, To Heaven or to Hell. 4 Thy Flesh, perhaps thy chiefest Care, Shall crawling Worms consume, But ah, Destruction stops not there; Sin kills beyond the Tomb! 5 To Day, the Gospel calls, to Day: Sinners, it speaks to you; Let ev'ry one forsake his Way, And Mercy will ensue, 6 Rich mercy, dearly bought with Blood, How vile foe'er he be, Abundant Pardon, peace with God; All giv'n entirely free.
