At the bar of God you will have to stand,
When the books are op­ened by the Sav­ior’s hand;
Then for ev­ery thought and each word you say,
You will have to an­swer, on the judg­ment day.

Refrain

On the judg­ment day, dread­ful judg­ment day,
We shall meet our Sav­ior on the judg­ment day;
Then what will you do? Oh, what will you say
When you stand be­fore Him on the judg­ment day?

There you’ll meet each friend,
There you’ll meet each foe,
Will they bring you plea­sure?
Will they cause you woe?
For the way you act, while on earth you stay,
Will con­demn or save you on the judg­ment day.

Refrain

Every act of life will be there made known,
When we see our Sav­ior on the judg­ment throne;
Many deeds that here we would hide away
Will be heard by mill­ions, on the judg­ment day.

Refrain

Every hour we spend in the Mas­ter’s cause
Will be weighed by mer­cy ’gainst His brok­en laws;
Every song we sing, ev­ery pray­er we pray,
Will be wait­ing for us on the judg­ment day.

Refrain

Let us then live close to the bleed­ing side
Of that pre­cious Sav­ior, who for us hath died;
For if we love Him and His voice ob­ey,
Joyfully we’ll meet Him, on the judg­ment day.
