WHILE WE LIVE, LET US LIVE
Sing while you live,
The epicure would say,
And seize the pleasures of the present day.
Live, while you live,
The sacred preacher cries;
And give to God each moment as it flies.
Lord, in my views, let both united be;
I live in pleasure, when I live to thee!
Dorchester, Sept 17th 1821
Joseph B Lyon
