76. How Would It Be With You?

1 If Jesus should come at this moment
To catch up with Him in the air
All those who love His appearing,
Forever to be with Him there,
How would He find you, I wonder—
Watching, waiting, faithful, true,
Dearly beloved, consider—
How would it be with you?

Refrain:
How would it be with you,
How would it be with you?
If called face to face now to meet Him,
How would it be with you?

2 If quickly to you came the summons
To stand in eternity now,
Where every tongue shall confess Him,
Before whom all nations must bow,
Would you be ready to meet Him,
In His blood be washed, made new?
Dearly beloved, consider—
How would it be with you? [Refrain]

3 If Jesus were standing among us
And carefully searching each heart,
Bidding the ransomed to enter,
And saying to others, depart;
Would you be placed at His right hand,
Or with those He never knew?
Dearly beloved, consider—
How would it be with you? [Refrain]
