Context: O friend! hope for Him whilst you live, know whilst you live, understand whilst you live: for in life deliverance abides.
If your bonds be not broken whilst living, what hope of deliverance in death?

If not, we do but go to dwell in the City of Death.
If you have union now, you shall have it hereafter.
