My church sings a version with one word changed that I think enhances the song. The second "die" is changed to "live.

"As he died to make men holy, let us live to make men free..."

I will live...to fight and die to make men free.

Death is the reward to be by Christ’s side. He told us and his apostles that a time may come to be martyred.

Let's hang the treasonous Commies and skip any martyrdom this time around.

No that is way worse. We are called to pick up our cross and follow Christ. That means we need to die, either literally or to self.

Christ doesn't ask us to die. Of course we have to be willing to die should the need arise, but Christ wants us to live and follow his example of following God's commandments.
