I REALLY WANT TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT, And walk according to my light; But Oh! I do not care to be At all extreme. I'm saved but still I'll court the world, A little fund in life's short whirl; I'll just enjoy it in my teens, I'm not extreme. |

Those people who would hew a line, And seek to walk in paths divine; According to the former days, Are TOO extreme. Have they not heard that times have changed, And "separation's" not much named Amongst us in our gatherings, lest We get extreme. |

No! No! Two great extremes I see, When gazing on the accursed tree; Extreme of love for sinful men - That's GOD'S EXTREME. And look, I see the other here, The world in all its varied sphere; The hatred shown for God's own Son - That's MAN'S EXTREME. |
|
On which extreme then would I be? As here He dies, who died for me? I'd rather share my Saviour's fame - Golgotha's shame. |
