Jesus is standing in Pilate's hall -
|
|
| 1. | 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?" |
| 2. | 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? |
| 3. | 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? |
| 4. | 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? |
| 5. | "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!" |
