Acts 1: 9-11, Isaiah 40: 4, Matthew 24: 36, Revelation 16: 14-21 & Daniel 12: 1-3

Chorus
Who will stand when He returns Who? Who will stand?
Who will stand when He returns Who? Who will stand?

When our Saviour Jesus Christ returns to this earth he will descend from Heaven in glory wearing a red robe and surrounded by those who have been faithful in serving Him and obeying the commandments. (Acts 1: 9-11, Daniel 12: 1-3)

Verse 1
Who will stand? The pure in heart with contrite spirit
They will stand Who will stand?
Only those whose love is pure for they shall see God
Who? will stand when He returns Who? Who will stand?
When he in glory descends from heaven
Who? Who will stand? Who will stand

Only those people who have lived good lives will be able to see Him when he descends from Heaven in glory and every corruptible thing along with those who are proud or wicked will be burnt as stubble because they won't be able to remain alive in His presence because of His glory (Isaiah 40: 4, Jude 1: 14, Revelation 1: 7 & 16: 14-21, Luke 21: 25-27)

My sheep hear my voice and obey my word
Their reward shall be exaltation with me for all eternity

Jesus Christ is the shepherd and we are His sheep and if we acknowledge Him as our Saviour and Redeemer and obey His commandments to the best of our ability He will accept our offering and our sins will be forgiven us, however if we choose to follow the world and its ways and ignore Him we will have to suffer for our sins alone
even though He has already suffered for them for us in Gethsemane

Verse 2
When he in glory descends from heaven
Only those who give, give themselves to thee
Thy will be done in all that we do in all that we are
We give ourselves to thee for all eternity
My sheep hear my voice and obey my word
Their reward shall be exaltation with me for all eternity
