If the Savior Came To Visit You

If The Savior Came to Visit You

By Donna Green

If the Savior came to visit you for just a day or two,
Would you be really comfortable with all the things you do?

Would everything within your home go on the old way?
Or would you have to change your ways during the Savior’s stay?

If the Savior came to your house to spend some time with you,
would you be prepared to meet Him and a warm friendship renew?Would you really know Him and long to have Him stay,

Or would you hope that He would wait and come another day?

So you could do the many things that you’ve been planning to,

But never seemed to have the time or take the time to do?

“If only I had known that He would come today,
I really would have been prepared.”
Are these the words you might say?

“Please give me but another day and I will use it to prepare,
To read the scriptures faithfully, help those in need and kneel in prayer.”

But no one knows when He will come. Not the hour or the day.
And if we are to be prepared we must begin today.

To take upon us our Savior’s name, come to know Him and do His will---Look forward to His coming, each sacred scripture to fulfill.

For whether His coming for each of us, is a great or dreadful day,

Will be determined by our faithfulness and how we live each day.
