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!!!
