LyicsHow can I sink with such a prop
As my eternal God,
Who hears 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 forever 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.
