Am I Born to Die? Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And am I born to die?
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown -

A land of deepest shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot?

[Verse 2]
Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be;

Waked by the trumpet's sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming sky

And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming sky
