If the End of the World Were Today

If the end of the world were to­day

And the great God His wrath would not stay

Would you feel your­self pre­pared

For the com­ing of the Lord

If the end of the world were to­day?

If the end were to­day

Would it be for you a glad

hap­py day?

Would you hur­ry forth to meet Him

Would your soul with rap­ture greet Him

If the end of the world were to­day?

If the end of the world were to­day

From His face would you then hide away?

To the rocks and mount­ains flee

Would you dread eter­ni­ty

If the end of the world were to­day?

If the end of the world were to­day

And the Sav­ior should call you away;

Would you be among the few

Robed and rea­dy

tried and true

If the end of the world were to­day?
