The Testing Time

Author: Emma A. Tiffany Hymnal: Light in the Valley #124 (1898) First Line: The testing time is very near Refrain First Line: Oh, my soul art thou ready to appear Lyrics: 1 The testing time is very near, When at Christ's bar we must appear; Must appear, must appear, When at Christ's bar we must appear. Chorus: Oh, my soul, art thou ready to appear At the bar, when the judgment day is here? With no counsel at thy side, When the book is opened wide, Oh, my soul, art thou ready to appear? 2 Our secret thoughts will then be known, We cannot then for sin atone; Sin atone, sin atone, We cannot then for sin atone. [Chorus] 3 We then may call, but all in vain, Too late! our guilt will still remain; Still remain, still remain, Too late! our guilt will still remain. [Chorus] 4 O sinner, come, e'er heaven's door Is closed, to open nevermore; Nevermore, nevermore, Is closed to open nevermore. [Chorus] 5 Then when the testing time doth come, You' find in heav'n sweet rest and home; Rest and home, rest and home, you'll find in heav'n sweet rest and home. [Chorus] Topics: Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: [The testing time is very near]
