509 | Judgment. C.M.
(1106) The Judgment Day.
And must I be to judgment brought,
And answer in that day,
For every vain and idle thought,
And every word I say?
2 Yes, every secret of my heart
Shall shortly be made known,
And I receive my just desert
For all that I have done.
3 How careful then I ought to live!
With what religious fear,
Who such a strict account must give
For my behavior here.
4 Thou awful Judge of quick and dead,
The watchful power bestow;
So shall I to my ways take heed,
To all I speak or do.
Charles Wesley.
