Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns, for the Church of the Latter Day Saints, 1835
1. Know then that ev'ry soul is free,
To choose his life and what he'll be;
For this eternal truth is given,
That God will force no man to heaven.
2. He'll call, persuade direct him right;,
Bless him with wisdom, love, and light;
In nameless ways be good and kind;
But never force the human mind.
3. Freedom and reason make us men:
Take these away, what are we then?
Mere animals, and just as well,
The beasts may think of heaven or hell.
4. May we no more our powers abuse,
But ways of truth and goodness choose;
Our God is pleased when we improve
His grace, and seek his perfect love.
5. It's my free will for to believe:
'Tis God's free will me to receive:
To stubborn willers this I'll tell,
It's all free grace, and all free will.
6. Those that despise, grow harder still;
Those that adhere, he turns their will:
And thus despisers sink to hell,
While those that hear in glory dwell.
7. But if we take the downward road,
And make in hell our last abode;
Our God is clear, and we shall know,
We've plunged ourselves in endless wo.

Hymn 232 L.M. 1. Know then that ev'ry soul is free, To choose his life and what he'll be; For this eternal truth is given, That God will force no man to heaven. 2. He'll call, persuade, direct him right; Bless him with wisdom, love and light; In nameless ways be good and kind; But never force the human mind. 3. Freedom and reason make us men; Take these away, what are we then? Mere animals, and just as well, The beasts may think of heaven or hell. 4. May we no more our powers abuse, But ways of truth and goodness choose; Our God is pleased when we improve His grace, and seek his perfect love. 5. 'Tis my free will for to believe: 'Tis God's free will me to receive: To stubborn willers this I'll tell, 'Tis all free grace, and all free will. 6. Those that despise, grow harder still, Those that adhere, he turns their will: And thus despisers sink to hell, While those that hear, in glory dwell, 7. But if we take the downward road, And make in hell our last abode; Our God is clear, and we shall know, We've plunged ourselves in endless wo.
