When the awful judg­ment day is break­ing,
And the Judge shall sit up­on His throne,
All the world will then ap­pear,
Some in glad­ness, some in fear,
Waiting for the Lord to claim His own.

Refrain

Who shall be able then to stand?
Who shall be able then to stand?
At the Judge’s blest com­mand,
At His right the right­eous stand,
As they hear the wel­come words,
Well done!

Years of sow­ing shall at length find har­vest,
Passing joys yield ev­er­last­ing pain;
But the right­eous, sore­ly tried,
Shall be fully sa­tis­fied,
They eter­nal life shall now ob­tain.

Refrain

Oh, how bless­èd in that day the right­eous,
Cleansed in Je­sus’ blood from ev­ery stain;
For the Judge they need not fear,
He is Sav­ior, friend so dear;
Thro’ His love eter­nal life they gain.

Refrain
