IF JESUS CAME TO YOUR HOUSE TO SPEND A DAY OR TWO
IF HE CAME UNEXPECTEDLY I WONDER WHAT YOU’D DO
I KNOW YOU’D GIVE YOUR NICEST ROOM TO SUCH AN HONORED GUEST
AND ALL THE FOOD YOU’D SERVE TO HIM WOULD BE YOUR VERY BEST
AND YOU WOULD KEEP ASSURING HIM YOU’RE GLAD TO HAVE HIM THERE
AND SERVING HIM IN YOUR HOME IS JOY BEYOND COMPARE.
NOW WHEN YOU’LL SEE HIM COMING WILL YOU MEET HIM AT THE DOOR
WITH ARMS OUTSTRETCHED IN WELCOME TO YOUR HEAVENLY VISITOR
OR WOULD YOU QUICKLY CHANGE YOUR CLOTHES BEFORE
YOU LET HIM IN OR MAYBE HIDE SOME MAGAZINES?
CHORUS:
LET US PONDER FOR A MOMENT AT THE COMING OR OUR LORD
HE’S OUR MAJESTIC SAVIOUR JESUS
COMING FOR ETERNITY
COMING FOR ETERNITY.
WOULD YOU PUT THE BIBLE WHERE THE MAGAZINES HAD BEEN
OR TURN OFF YOUR RADIO AND HOPED HE HADN’T HEARD
AND ALSO WISHED YOU HADN’T UTTERED THAT LAST LOUD HASTY WORD
WOULD YOU HIDE YOUR WORDLY MUSIC
AND PUT SOME HYMN BOOKS OUT
COULD YOU LET JESUS WALK RIGHT IN OR WOULD YOU RUSH ABOUT
WONDERING WHAT YOU SHOULD DO WITH HIM FOR JUST A DAY OR TWO.
WOULD YOU GO RIGHT ON DOING THE THINGS YOU ALWAYS DO
WOULD YOU GO RIGHT ON SAYING THE THINGS YOU ALWAYS SAY
WOULD LIFE FOR YOU CONTINUE AS IT DOES FROM DAY TO DAY
IF JESUS CAME TO STAY
CHORUS & BRIDGE
LET US PONDER CONT…
WOULD YOUR FAMILY CONVERSATION KEEP UP ITS USUAL PACE
WOULD YOU FIND IT HARD EACH MEAL TO SAY THE TABLE GRACE
WOULD YOU SING THE SONGS YOU SING
AND READ THE BOOKS YOU READ
AND LET HIM KNOW THE THINGS ON WHICH YOUR MIND AND SPIRIT FEEDS
WOULD YOU TAKE JESUS WITH YOU WHERE YOU PLANNED TO GO
OR WOULD YOU MAYBE CHANGE YOUR PLANS FOR JUST A DAY OR SO.
WOULD YOU BE GLAD TO HAVE HIM MEET YOUR VERY CLOSEST FRIENDS
OR WOULD YOU HOPE THEY’D STAY AWAY UNTIL HIS VISIT ENDS
IT MIGHT BE INTERESTING TO KNOW THE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD DO
IF JESUS CAME TO YOU.
CHORUS
WE FIND EACH OTHER GATHERED HERE
CHIT-CHATTING AWAY OUR DREAMS
HAVING FUN AMONGST OUR FRIENDS FULL OF CHEERS AND GLEE
I WONDER IF HE CAME RIGHT IN IF WE’D REMAIN THE SAME
WOULD WE RUN UP TO HIM AND ASK HIM TO JOIN OUR TEAM
MAYBE WE WOULD WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO WELCOME HIM
CAUSE WE’RE A LITTLE SHY ABOUT OUR STATE OF HEART AND MIND.
WOULD HE BE SINGING WITH US AND CHATTING ALL DAY LONG
WOULD HE BE REALLY HAPPY TO HAVE A SING-ALONG
IT MIGHT BE INTERESTING TO KNOW WHAT JESUS CHRIST WOULD DO
AT OUR WOMEN’S RENDEZ-VOUS.
CHORUS:
LET US PONDER FOR A MOMENT
AT THE PRESENCE OF OUR KING
HE’S OUR MAJESTIC SAVIOR JESUS
COMING HERE FOR ETERNITY
I SAY HERE FOR ETERNITY
HE’S COMING HERE FOR ETERNITY!!!
If Jesus came to your house
Have you ever thought of
what you would do? Imagine that. Holy Wow!
