Note from Jeanette: While going through some old papers recently (from the mid 1970’s), I discovered (rediscovered) this song / poem which I believe is worth some thought from each one of us. The author, while wishing to remain anonymous, has graciously consented to let me share it with you. (And if Jesus is not your Lord, just read it with His/Her name.)

What Would You Do?

If Jesus came to you one day
and said, “Lay down your work
and follow me.”
What would you say?
What would you do?

Would you smile and take His hand,
Or would you hang your head in shame?
And could you take His love
So warm and free?
What would you say?
What would you do?

Could you look into His eyes,
Or would you have to hide your tears
And let Him walk away
Without a word?
What would you say?
What would you do?

Friend, don’t let a day go by
Without a song to sing,
For if you’ve ever heard His name
You are His own.
What would you say?
What would you do?

If Jesus came to you one day
and said, “Lay down your work
and follow me.”
What would you say?
What would you do?
What would you say?
What would you do?
