Refrain: Then why will ye die? Oh! why will ye die? When the Shepherd's fold is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? 4. There is a cross where the Saviour died, His blood flow'd out in a crimson tide A sacrifice for sins of men, And free to all who will enter in. Refrain: Then why will ye die? Oh! why will ye die? When the crimson cross is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? Used With Tune: [There is a Rock in a weary land]
