SHALL I BE THERE?

When upon the “great white throne” Christ shall sit as Judge alone; When the “book of life” is read There before the risen dead, As are turned those pages fair, Shall my name be written there?
When is closed the Judgment day, When this earth has passed away, When the city new shall come, And the saints be gathered home, Shall I in their triumph share? O my Lord, shall I be there?
When the mighty “white-robed” throng Swell the all-triumphant song,— Glory to the “Great I Am,” Glory, glory, to the Lamb, Ringing on the balmy air, Saviour mine, shall I be there?
If I follow Jesus here, If I hold my trust most dear, If I plunge beneath the flood, If I’m washed by Jesus’ blood, If for Christ I do and dare, Yes, my Lord, I shall be there!
