O, Live to God!

By John Hugh Morgan

In the bright morn of life, When free from toil and strife, When light beams all around, When gladsome songs abound, When dew lies on the ground. O, live to God!
Give him the fire of youth, The eager love of truth, The zeal that burns and glows, The daring faith that knows No shrinking fear of foes: O, live to God!
Serve him in manhood’s prime, With talent, toil, and time, Give him thy manhood’s crown, Put rebel passions down, Extol his just renown: O, live to God!
When evening shadows spread, When droops thy weary head, When pleasures lose their zest, When sorrows banish rest, Still bow to his behest: O, live to God!
— John Hugh Morgan.
