Waking Up to Christian Song in English

Verse 1
Many people speak of much knowledge
but end up crying on their deathbed.
They hate themselves for wasting their lives
and living a long life for nothing.

Verse 2
They merely understand the doctrines,
but canโ€™t put the truth into practice.
Instead of bearing witness to God,
they run hither and thither like a bee.

Pre-chorus
Itโ€™s only on the brink of death
that they finally see the truth:
They see that they donโ€™t know God at all,
and that they lack true testimony.

Chorus
Why not seize the day?
Why not pursue the truth you love?
Why wait until tomorrow?
Is that not too late?
Why not seek the truth,
suffer for the truth while you live?
Do you wish to die with regrets?
Then why believe in God?

Verse 3
There are many matters where people
can put the truth into practice
with only the slightest exertion,
and in doing so, satisfy God.

Verse 4
But their hearts are possessed by demons,
so they canโ€™t act for the sake of God.
Instead they act for the sake of flesh
and have nothing to show in the end.

Bridge
This is why people are troubled
and afflicted with difficulties.
Are these not the torments of Satan?
Is this not the corruption of flesh?

Verse 5
Donโ€™t try to fool God with empty talk,
but rather take tangible action.
Whatโ€™s the point in deceiving yourself?
Whatโ€™s to gain by living for flesh and fame?

Chorus
Why not seize the day?
Why not pursue the truth you love?
Why wait until tomorrow?
Is that not too late?
Why not seek the truth,
suffer for the truth while you live?
Do you wish to die with regrets?
Then why believe in God?
