When Christ Returns
When the world has ended and this moment is the last
What will you be doing?
Who will you be?
Will you rejoice at the coming of the Lord?
Or will you cower and mourn?
What will you be doing when Christ returns?
We are told to watch and wait; pray alway, for no one knows just when the moment will arrive
He will come as a thief, you don’t know if you’ll be dead or alive
What will you be doing when Christ returns?
Don’t fool yourself into thinking that day is a long way away
We don’t even know if tomorrow holds sway
Even as I write this, I don’t know if He’s coming
I just hope that I’m doing something
right.
I don’t know if I’ll last the night,
For I have sinned, very grievously
And am saved only by God’s mercy
His grace sufficient for me.
What will you be doing when Christ returns?
I hope I’ll be praying
I pray I’ll be working
Sharing the Gospel
Preaching the Good News
I hope I’ll be ready
I pray I’ll be waiting
***
Every moment may be the very last
It’s time now to be saved; it’s time now to work
Now’s all the time we have
This very moment may be
The very last
Moment the world has ever known.
What will you be doing?
Who will you be?
When Christ comes in His Heavenly glory?
This has preyed on my mind a lot of late
For, ere today, ere this moment, ere many times,
Surely, I would’ve met a grisly fate
Because I sinned
Because I failed
Because I fell
And did not desire to rise
Until I learned
This is the last moment.
Now’s all we have.
