THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST Swiftly and surely comes the day When I shall keep a tryst, The focal point of all my life, The judgment seat of Christ. Shall I approach that throne with dread, With fear, and stark dismay? What will confront me, what be read About me on that day? I shall not stand a prisoner, Who waits with bated breath To hear the sentence of the Judge, If it be life or death; All this was settled long ago. But rather I shall stand A servant, waiting judgment on The work of heart and hand. The works in which my soul took pride May there be judged as hay, And burned as chaff and stubble on That all-revealing day. O may there be some little deed, Some word for Him I said, Some work the Spirit energized, Some earnest prayer I prayed, Something entirely free from self, Or hope of gain, or pride, Works done for love of Him alone— These only shall abide. How would I feel if I should have No crown of gold to give, To lay before the feet of Him Who died that I might live? May I live my remaining days Remembering that tryst Which I must keep with Him before The Judgment seat of Christ! —Martha Snell Nicholson From tho book "Iv o r y P a lace *."
