Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13190 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Why have we lips, if not to sing Refrain First Line: What are we for? What are we for? Lyrics: 1 Why have we lips, if not to sing
The praises of our heav’nly king?
Why have we hearts, if not to love,
Our Father and our friend above?
Refrain:
What are we for? What are we for?
What are we for?
What are we for, but to serve the Lord,
With every deed, and thought and word?
2 Why were our curious bodies made,
And every part in order laid?
Why, but that each of us might stand
A living wonder from His hand? [Refrain]
3 Why have we souls, if not to know
The God from whom our mercies flow?
Sure this can never be our lot,
Like senseless brutes, to know Him not! [Refrain]
4 Why have we life? If not to gain
Immortal life, ’tis worse than vain;
This is the end for which ’twas giv’n—
We live on earth, to live in Heav’n. [Refrain]
5 Why did the Savior leave the sky,
Hang on a cross, and bleed and die?
And why are kind persuasions sent
To call and win us to repent? [Refrain]
6 Surely it is—that robed in white
And made well-pleasing in His sight,
Our souls may join the happy throng,
And sing the everlasting song. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Why have we lips, if not to sing]
