The Flow'rs That Beautified the Field
p cr
The flow'rs that beautified the field, That looked tender and fresh When touched by sickle, it will die; It falls and withers off.
p
This example is fit for us According to God's word; Let young and old take heed and know That they are but like grass.
p cr
Put not your trust on fleeting breath, Call not your times your own Around, we see sickle of death Cut down thousands of soul.
p f
Those who are spared until this day Soon, life will also end; Prepare, be wise before the time The death angel will come.
p
The grass, when dead, will wake no more, Die, thou, that thou may live, What, if death were the door that leads To everlasting pain.
f
O Lord, help us answer Thy call, Let us depart from sin And when we fall down like the grass Let our souls come to Thee.
