Classic Poem

O DEAD in sin!
Wilt thou still choose to die
The death of deaths eternally?
Dost thou not feel the gloom
Of the eternal tomb?

O dead to life!
Wilt thou the life from heaven
Reject? the life so freely given;
Wilt thou choose sin and tears
Through everlasting years?

O dead to Christ!
Wilt thou despise the love
Of Him who stooped from joy above,
To shame on earth for thee,
That he might set thee free?

O dead to God!
Wilt thou not seek his face?
Wilt thou not turn and own the grace?
Wilt thou not take the heaven,
So freely to thee given?
