Turn ye; for why will ye die?
Ezekiel 18:31.
Sinners, turn—why will you die?
God, your Maker, asks you why:
God, who did your being give,
Made you with himself to live.
2 Sinners, turn—why will you die?
Christ, your Saviour, asks you why;
He, who did your souls retrieve,
He, who died that you might live.
3 Will you let him die in vain?
