Jesus is standing in Pilate’s hall—
Friendless
forsaken
betrayed by all:
Hearken! what meaneth the sudden call?
What will you do with Jesus?
What will you do with Jesus?
Neutral you cannot be;
Some day your heart will be asking
“What will He do with me?”
Jesus is standing on trial still
You can be false to Him if you will
You can be faithful through good or ill:
What will you do with Jesus?
Will you evade Him as Pilate tried?
Or will you choose Him
whate’er betide?
Vainly you struggle from Him to hide:
What will you do with Jesus?
Will you
like Peter
your Lord deny?
Or will you scorn from His foes to fly
Daring for Jesus to live or die?
What will you do with Jesus?
“Jesus
I give Thee my heart today!
Jesus
I’ll follow Thee all the way
Gladly obeying Thee!” will you say:
“This will I do with Jesus!”
