The Books Will All Be Opened

Author: C. M. F. Hymnal: Revival Praises #124 (1907) First Line: You are writing your own book of life Refrain First Line: Oh! the books will be opened, my brother Lyrics: 1 You are writing your own book of life, Day by day a record foul or fair; When at last your work is done, You must face the judgment throne; Then the books will all be opened over there. Chorus: Oh! the books will be opened, my brother, You'll be judged by your own, not another; Then my brother, O beware, Write your record with great care, For the books will all be opened over there. 2 You are writing down the tho'ts you think, You are writing down the deeds you do; You are writing ev'ry word, Whether spoken or unheard; And in judgment they will all be brought to view. [Chorus] 3 What is written once cannot be changed, But forever must remain the same: Oh! how great should be your care, That you make that record fair, In that book which you are writing in your name. [Chorus] 4 There is just one way to write it true, Just one way to make your record clear-- Pen each sentence and each word In the name of Christ the Lord; Then your open book you'll never, never fear. [Chorus] Tune Title: [You are writing your own book of life]
