Tune: Arranged by M. C. H. Davis, 1835
Alto: Wilson Marion Cooper, 1902
Lyrics: Hall’s New Collection, 1804
Meter: Common Meter (8,6,8,6)
Young people all attention give,
And hear what I shall say;
I wish your souls with Christ to live,
In everlasting day.

Remember you are hast’ning on
To death’s dark gloomy shade;
Your joys on earth will soon be gone,
Your flesh in dust be laid.
