The Judgment (Eller)

Are you rea­dy for the dawn­ing

Of that morn­ing bright and fair

When you’ll see the Sav­ior com­ing

With the an­gels in the air?

Is your life re­deemed and spot­less

Are your gar­ments white as snow?

Could you wel­come now your Sav­ior

And with Him to glo­ry go?

When you stand be­fore the throne

Will you be un­saved

un­known?

Or among the pure and blest

Who shall gain eter­nal rest?

When the na­tions have been ga­thered

From the land and from the sea

And the liv­ing been trans­lat­ed

With their Lord for aye to be

And you stand at last in judg­ment

Knowing earth­ly ties are riv’n

Will a place of end­less ang­uish

Or a crown of life be giv’n?

When the great tri­bun­al’s ov­er

And the saved have heard Well done

And are sing­ing hal­le­lu­jahs

To the Fa­ther and the Son

Will you be among the num­ber

Pain and sor­row passed away

There to reign with Him in glad­ness

Thro’ one bright eter­nal day?
