At the Judgment Seat

lyricist: J. B. Lemon, 1903
Composer: Howard Doane

At the judg­ment seat of Christ

my Sav­ior

All the na­tions shall be called to stand;

And all peo­ple shall ap­pear be­fore Him

On His left

or on His own right hand.

At the judg­ment

where wilt thou ap­pear?

Will it be on the right hand

Will it be on the left hand?

At the judg­ment where wilt thou be found

When be­fore Him thou shalt stand?

He shall se­pa­rate them like a shep­herd

Oh

what part­ings in that aw­ful day!

“Come

ye bless­èd to the heav’n­ly man­sions;

Go

ye curs­èd from My throne away.”

Loved ones on one side

and

on the oth­er

Weeping

as they part to meet no more

God shall wipe away the tears of Christ­ians

As they pass thro’ Heav­en’s op­en door.

At the judg­ment seat of Christ

my Sav­ior

When all na­tions shall be ga­thered there

Wilt thou be up­on His right hand

bro­ther

Evermore the bliss of Heav’n to share?
