#111: What Will You Do with Jesus?

(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)

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?

CHORUS

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 thru good or ill:

What will you do with Jesus?

CHORUS

3

Will you evade Him as Pilate tried?

Or will you choose Him, what-e’el bedite?

Vainly you struggle from Him to hide:

What will you do with Jesus?

CHORUS

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?

CHORUS

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?

CHORUS
