The Judgment

by W. C. Muffitt

O, the time is fast approaching,
When the judgment day shall come;
When we'll hear the trumpet sounding,
Will we hear him say, "Come home"?

There shall be before him gathered
Every soul from every land;
Will you be among the righteous,
Or with those at his left hand?

O! how sad 'twill be, my brother,
For you at the judgment day,
When he says, "Ye blessed, enter,"
And you shall be turned away.

We shall all meet at the judgment;
All hearts must be free from sin
Or he'll say, "Depart, ye cursed,"
And we cannot enter in.

Chorus

The judgment day is drawing near,
And are we saved from all our sin?
O, will we hear the Master say,
"Come ye blessed, enter in."
