Wikipedia article"'What Would You Do (If Jesus Came to Your House)'" is a country gospel song, written by Yolanda Adams, Errol McCalla Jr., Jonathan Broussard and Marcus Ecby, and popularized in 1956 by up-and-coming country singer Porter Wagoner. Wagoner's version reached No. 8 on the 'Billboard' country charts in the spring of 1956, and was the higher of two competing chart versions released that year. Also in 1956, another up-and-coming country singer, Red Sovine, released his own version on Decca Records, which peaked at No. 15. For Sovine, although the main chorus 'What would you do/if Jesus came to your house/to spend some time with you' is sung, it was one of his first songs that were spoken, as most of his later well-known songs were.
