Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #II.116 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: How can I sink with such a prop Lyrics:
How can I sink with such a prop
As my eternal God,
Who bears the earth's huge pillars up,
And spreads the heav'ns abroad?
How can I die while Jesus lives,
Who rose and left the dead?
Pardon and grace my soul receives
From mine exalted Head.
All that I am, and all I have,
Shall be for ever thine;
Whate'er my duty bids me give
My cheerful hands resign.
Yet if I might make some reserve,
And duty did not call,
I love my God with zeal so great
That I should give him all.
