What Would You Do (If Jesus Came To Your House)

(album: In Gospel Country - 1968)

(What would you do, what would you do
If Jesus came to spend some time with you?)

If Jesus came to your house to spend a day or two
If he came unexpectedly I wonder what you'd do
When you saw him coming would you meet him at the door
With arms outstretched and welcome to your heavenly visitor

Or would you need to change some things before you let him in
Like burn some magazines and put the Bible where they'd been
Oh, I know that you'd give your nicest room to such an honered guest
And all the food you would serve to him would be the very best

And you'd keep assuring him that you were glad to have him there
That serving him in your home was a joy beyond compare
But what about your family conversation would it keep up its normal pace
And would you find it hard each meal to say a table grace

Would you be glad to have him stay forever on and on
Or would you sigh of great relief when finally he had gone
You know it might be interesting to know the things you'd do
If Jesus came in person to spend some time with you

(What would you do, what would you do
If Jesus came to spend some time with you?)
