I’ll Start for the Kingdom!

Author: Rev. Elisha A. Hoffman Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.2 #40 (1889) First Line: You ask me to leave the broad roadway of sin Refrain First Line: I’ll start, I’ll start Lyrics: 1 You ask me to leave the broad roadway of sin, And turn from the wrong to the right, So I have resolved a new life to begin, And start for the Kingdom tonight! Refrain: I’ll start, I’ll start I’ll start for the Kingdom tonight! God helping me now I will take the first step, And start for the Kingdom tonight. 2 Too dearly and long I have loved this poor world, And wasted the years in their flight, ‘Tis time I should leave all the sins of my life; I’ll start for the Kingdom tonight! [Refrain] 3 The pleasures of earth have engrossed all my tho’ts, The pleasures of sense and of sight; Too long I’ve neglected, alas! my poor soul; I’ll start for the Kingdom tonight! [Refrain] 4 No longer I’ll walk in the broad way of sin, And close my poor heart to the light; If Christ will receive me, my all I will yield; And start for the Kingdom tonight! [Refrain] Tune Title: [You ask me to leave the broad roadway of sin]
