Is It True? (Reed)

Is it true that I must lie

In the grave­yard by and by

And with oth­ers gone be­fore

Sleep till time shall be no more?

Is it true—Oh

is it true?

Is it true

as ma­ny say

Life is just a pass­ing day

And that Heav’n is lost or won

Ere this fleet­ing day has flown?

Is it true—Oh

is it true?

Is it true that on the cross

Jesus bled and died for us

And

while hang­ing on the tree

Upward sent a pray­er for me?

Is it true—Oh

is it true?

Is it true that all death’s slain

Will arise and live again

And to final judg­ment go

Some for bliss and some for woe?

Is it true—Oh

is it true?
