CHORUS
//The reason to live// is Jesus,
And to die is a great gain,
For the soul that lives in Jesus;
//The reason to live// is Jesus,
And to die is a great gain,
A great Man of God once said.
2
And to rest in Jesus Christ, brings relief onto the soul,
Front this earthly flesh to an everlasting day,
Sorrow will cease away, and tears will face,
And only joy and peace, beyond the starry skies, will reign eter-
nally.
3
And those that in the Lord, lived according to His will,
The righteous Judge will call when final days shall come,
The trumpet shall resound that final day,
And every soul at rest in Jesus Christ our Lord
Shall rise at His command.

Holy Spirit, great Comforter,
You've brought my soul happiness and love,
Now my only pleasure shall become
To praise and bless God's holy name.
CHORUS
I shall fight as a brave soldier,
Wielding my sword and shield in my hands,
For it has bestowed, our celestial life,
Holy Spirit, great Comforter.
2
Now the Lord alone considered me,
I should bear His burden cross of grief;
Now I only trust in my Lord's strength,
So that in the end I win the fight.
