What If….?

If your life be required of you

To whom shall you plead a second chance?

When eternity has come to be

And your time on earth is no more!

 

If your life be required of you

What with shall you your crown claim?

Whom shall you lead as your own

That the weapons of your stay have brought?

 

If your life be required of you

What shall you your Saviour tell?

To whom shall your plea be made?

After these years that have been!

 

If your life be required of you

What angels will glory at your call?

Will you from the Master hear

“Well-done, my faithful servant”?

 

If your life be required of you

What book shall your record be found?

What page shall do the honour

That a son once prodigal is home?     ~

 

If your life be required of you

Will you sing knowing home is near?

Or will you weep your eyes sore

Knowing the line is drawn?

 

If of Christ you are named

The treasures in heaven

What worth will be yours

If now your life be required of you?

 

2Corinthians 5:8-10 And we are not afraid but are quite content to die, for then we will be at home with the Lord. So our aim is to please him always in everything we do, whether we are here in this body or away from this body and with him in heaven. 10 For we must all stand before Christ to be judged and have our lives laid bare—before him. Each of us will receive whatever he deserves for the good or bad things he has done in his earthly body.(TLB)
