There's Coming a Time

Charles Price Jones • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 25:46

Verse 1

There's coming a time when all who have journeyed Patiently in the heavenly way, Will hear the dear Master tenderly saying, "Enter my rest, O child of the day."

Chorus

Will you be one? O will you be one? Will you be there, your life's work all done? As the redeemed shall hear the glad welcome, On His right hand, O will you be one?

Verse 2

There's coming a time of judgment eternal, Day when the works of men shall be tried; When only the pure, the godly, the holy, Happy with Christ in heav'n shall abide.

Chorus

Will you be one? O will you be one? Will you be there, your life's work all done? As the redeemed shall hear the glad welcome, On His right hand, O will you be one?

Verse 3

There's coming a time when sinners shall hear Him, Saying in anger, "From me depart!" And driven to doom, shall wail that they never Gave to the Lord the love of their heart.

Chorus

Will you be one? O will you be one? Will you be there, your life's work all done? As the redeemed shall hear the glad welcome, On His right hand, O will you be one?

Verse 4

This wonderful time is swiftly approaching, Will you not now to meet it prepare? Repent and believe, be filled with the Spirit; Hurry! the time of judgment is near.

Chorus

Will you be one? O will you be one? Will you be there, your life's work all done? As the redeemed shall hear the glad welcome, On His right hand, O will you be one?
