Dethe Began Bycause Of Syn Lyrics
Be thou poore or be thou ryche
I redelyfte vp thyn eye
And se in this we be all lyche
For so the all we shall dye.

Dethe began bycause of syn
We syn bothe poore and ryche
Therfore deth wyll neuer blyn
To take vs all in lyche
For our syn I rede we seche
To heuen that we may hye
For be we neuer so fresh nor ryche
For so the we all shall dye
Be thou poore. etc

Christ that was bothe god and man
He dyed for our gylt
Nedes must we dye than
With syn yf we be spylt
We shall rote bothe hert and mylt
Mercy lorde we crye
It shal be lorde, ryght us thou wylt
For so the all we shall dye.
Be thou poore. etc

Now Chryst dyed for all our mys
I red haue in thy thought
To set thy mynde on wordly blys
For so the I holde it nought
For worldes blys Chryst hene rought
I rede the it defy
Unto thy graue thou shalt be brought
For so the we shall all dye
Be thou poore. etc

If thou be pore kepe the clene
And thank god of his sonde
If thou be ryche, gyue and lende
Bothe to poore and bonde
Loke thou do thus with thy honde
Through Chryst to heuen yu shalt hye
Thou can not long lyue in this londe
For so the all we shall dye
Be thou poore. etc

Though yu be ryche, I tell ye before
Death wyll with the mete
Of all thy goodes thou getest no more
But a wyndyng shete
Therfore thy bales here thou bete
To god for mercy crye
Wepe for synnes with teares wete
For so the all we shall dye.
Be thou poore. etc

Thou shalt by thou wote not whan
Nor thou wotest where
To repent the tyme is now
This lesson I red the lere
How soone yu shalt be brought on bere
It is not for the to try
Lete this lesson sound in thyn eare
For so the all we shall dye
Be thou poore. etc

All we shall dye, and ryse agayne
In one affynyte
If we euyll dye, we go to payne
This is the veryte
If that we ryse in charyte
To blys than shall we stye
This is gods equyte
For so the all we shall dye.
Be thou poore. etc
