When I Stand
When I stand
before Jesus,
Will He know
me by my
deeds,
Or look away
from me in
shame,
For I failed
to help those
in need?
When I am
judged by the
King,
On the life
I've lived
below,
Will He
welcome me to
the fold,
Or sadly
command me to
go?
When I see
Him, will He
reach for me,
Greeting me
with arms wide
open,
Or condemn me
for my
silence,
His name by me
left unspoken?
When I meet my
Savior face to
face,
Has the work
on earth I've
done,
Earn me a seat
at the banquet
table,
Or bar my
presence from
Father and
Son?
Is my heart
still pure as
new fallen
snow,
As when Jesus
washed away my
sin,
Have I drifted
and failed my
Lord,
Do I need to
kneel before
the Cross
again?
Is my name
written in the
Book of Life,
Have I met the
requirements
as the Bible
told,
Will I be
clothed in a
robe of white,
Have I earned
a crown of
shining gold?
When I meet my
Lord Jesus
Christ,
Will I deserve
to even stand,
Close to the
one that died
for me,
Am I worthy of
the love of
this Man?
