Hymn 116

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 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.
