1 Choose I must, and soon must choose Holiness, or heaven lose; While what heaven loves I hate, Shut for me in heaven’s gate. 2 Endless sin means endless woe; Into endless sin I go, If my soul, from reason rent, Takes from sin its final bent. 3 As the stream its channel grooves, And within that channel moves, So doth habit’s deepest tide Groove its bed, and there abide. 4 Light obeyed increaseth light, Light resisted bringeth night; Who shall give me will to choose, If the love of light I lose? 5 Speed, my soul; this instant yield; Let the Light its sceptre wield; While thy God prolongeth grace, Hate thee toward His holy face. | The Cyber Hymnal #10793 Gospel Hymns No. 5 #137 (1887) |
