Touch Not, Taste Not

Author: Dwight Williams Hymnal: US1917 #111 (1917) First Line: There's danger in the flowing bowl! Lyrics: 1 There’s danger in the flowing bowl! Touch not, taste not! handle not! ‘Twill ruin body ruin soul! Touch not, taste not! handle not! ‘Will rob the pocket of its cash; ‘Twill scourge them with a cruel lash; And all thy hopes of pleasure dash,— Touch not, taste not! handle not! 2 “Strong drink is raging,” God hath said: Touch not, taste not! handle not! And thousands it hath captive led! Touch not, taste not! handle not! It leads the young, the strong, and brave; It leads them to a drunkard’s grave; It leads them where no arm can save,— Touch not, taste not! handle not! 3 Come, let us join each heart and hand, Touch not, taste not! handle not! To drive the traffic from the land; Touch not, taste not! handle not! We need the strongest, bravest hearts To foil the cruel tempter’s arts, And heal his fearful wounds and smarts— Touch not, taste not! handle not! 4 Oh, hasten, then, the happy time! Touch not, taste not! handle not! When joyful bells the notes will chime; Touch not, taste not! handle not! Then raise the temp’rance flag on high, And lift your voices to the sky— Sing, glory be to God on high— Touch not, taste not! handle not! Topics: Temperance Tune Title: MARYLAND

Danger

Author: Francis E. Willard Hymnal: US1917 #112 (1917) First Line: Write it on the workhouse gate Lyrics: 1 Write it on the workhouse gate, Write it on the schoolboy’s slate; Write it on the copy book, That the young may often look, “Where there’s drink, there is danger.” 2 Write it on the churchyard mound, Where the rum slain dead are found; Write it on the gallows high, Write for all the passers by, “Where there’s drink, there is danger.” 3 Write it in the nation’s laws, Blotting out the license clause; Write it on each ballot white, So it can be read aright, “Where there’s drink, there is danger.” 4 Write it on our ships that sail, Borne along by storm and gale; Write it large, in letters plain, Over ev’ry land and main, “Where there’s drink, there is danger.” 5 Write it over ev’ry gate, On the church and halls of state, In the heart of ev’ry band, On the laws of every land, “Where there’s drink, there is danger.” Topics: Temperance Tune Title: [Write it on the workhouse gate]

Refrain: We fight to win, for God is with us And right shall triumph over wrong; Our King the victory will give us, For He is stronger than the strong; We fight to win, For Jesus leads us, And all His foes shall flee and fall; Then all the ransom’d happy nations Shall crown Him Lord and King of all. 2 Tho’ countless foes Our way oppose, No weakness we’ll display, But battle still, With dauntless will Around the cross, Nor think of loss, Till sin hath pass’d away. [Refrain] 3 The battle-cry That rent the sky In dreary ages flown, Is ringing still, O’er plain and hill, And thus shall ring, Till Christ our King Regains His royal throne.
