If Jesus Came To Your
House
If Jesus came to your
house to spend a
day or two, if He came unexpectedly,
I wonder what you'd do.
Oh, I know you'd give
your nicest room
to such an honored guest, and all the
food you'd serve to him would be the
very best.
And you would keep
assuring Him
you're glad to have him there.
That serving Him in your own home
is a joy beyond compare.
But when you saw Him
coming,
would you meet Him at the door,
with arms outstretched in welcome
to your Heavenly visitor?
Or would you have to
change your
clothes before you let him in?
Or hide some magazines
and put
the Bible where it'd been?
Would you turn off the
radio, and
hope He hadn't heard? And wish
you hadn't uttered that last loud
hasty word?
Would you hide your
worldly music,
and put some hymn books out?
Could you let Jesus
come right in
or would you have to rush about?
And I wonder if the
Saviour spent
a day or two with you, would you
go right on doing the things you
always do?
Would you go right on
saying the
things you always say? Would life
for you continue as it does from
day to day?
Would your family
conversation
keep up it's usual pace? And would
you find it hard each meal to say a
table grace?
Would you sing the
songs you always
sing, and read the books you read?
And let Him know the
things on which
your mind and spirit feed?
Would you take Jesus
with you
everywhere you'd planned to go?
Or would you maybe
change your
plans for just a day or so?
Would you be glad to
have Him
meet your very closest friends?
Or would you hope
they'd stay away
until His visit ends?
Would you be glad to
have Him
stay forever on and on?
Or would you sigh with
great relief
when He at last was gone?
It might be
interesting to know the
things you would do, if Jesus Christ
in person came to spend some time
with you.
