A Time to Die

I know there is a time to die.
I don't know when, but I know why.
The 'when' is settled in God's plan;
The 'why' is that we're sinful man.

Since all have sinned, so all must die:
A holy God brings justice nigh.
Death is the wages paid for sin;
To live you must be born again.

The gift of life, a gift of God
Delivers from the chastening rod.
Eternal life, eternal bliss,
God gives to all them that are His.
