O, Who Shall Be Able to Stand?

There’s a great judg­ment day

That is com­ing

we know

It’s com­ing to one and all;

For the Judge shall des­cend

In His pow­er di­vine

And judge both the great and small.

When Je­sus comes

And the judg­ment is set

O! who will be on His right hand?

When the trum­pet shall sound

And the na­tions have come

O! who shall be able to stand?

Then the right­eous and wick­ed

Together shall meet

To judg­ment they shall be brought;

And the Judge shall pro­claim

To the right­eous

Well done.

The wick­ed

I know you not.

There will be great re­joic­ing

Of hap­py ones there

Who fol­lowed the Sav­ior here;

When they hear Him de­clare

Come

ye bless­èd of Mine

And en­ter My home so fair.

But there’ll be la­men­ta­tion

And mourn­ing that day

When Je­sus shall say

De­part;

And the wick­ed shall flee

From His pre­sence away

What rend­ing of ev­ery heart!

O! pre­pare us

dear Lord

For Thy coming ere long

The judg­ment of that great day;

When the saints shall re­joice

In Thy pre­sence with song

The wick­ed be driv’n away.
