If Jesus came to your hometo 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 Him
would be the very best,
And you would keep assuring Him
you're glad to have Him there --

That serving Him in your home
is joy beyond compare.
But when you see 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 they'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 walk right in,
or would you rush about?

And I wonder --
if the Saviorspent 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 its usual pace,
And would you find hard each meal
to say table grace?

Would you sing the songs you always sing,
and read the books you read,
and let Him know the thing
son which your mind and spirit feed?

Would you take Jesus with you
everywhere you 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 closest friends,
Or would you hope they 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
that you would do,
If Jesus came in person to spend some time with you.
