1 Let the message go forth,
Send it over the earth,
Sounding clearly and sweetly,
Proclaiming the worth
Of a faith that can say,
Meeting death on the way:
"Tell them all, I can die like a Christian."
Refrain:
O to die like a Christian,
Who would not die like a Christian?
With Christ by my side, whatsoever betide,
Let me me, let me die like a Christian.
2 Unto Him who destroyed
All the sting death employed,
Making fully and justly
The death sentence void;
Let us come while we may,
That in death we can say:
"Tell them all, I can die like a Christian." [Refrain]
3 If we trust in His blood,
If we own Him as Lord,
Resurrection and glory
Shall come thro’ His word;
And in death we may sing,
By the grace of death’s King:
"Tell them all, I can die like a Christian." [Refrain]
