A poem by Isaac Watts

Heaven And Hell

________________________________________________
Title:     Heaven And Hell
Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

There is beyond the sky
A heaven of joy and love,
And holy children, when they die,
Go to that world above.

There is a dreadful hell,
And everlasting pains,
There sinners must with devils dwell
In darkness, fire, and chains.

Can such a wretch as I
Escape this cursed end?
And may I hope, whene'er I die,
I shall to heaven ascend?

Then will I read and pray
While I have life and breath;
Lest I should be cut off to day,
And sent t' eternal death.



[The end]
Isaac Watts's poem: Heaven And Hell
