If you've been investing in index funds for the past 20 years, your 401k is certainly worth more than what you put in. Hell, even if you invested two lump sums right before the dot-com bust and the 07/08 recession, you're still net positive. The markets are currently at all-time highs.

Unfortunately, you don't always get that choice. my 401(k) doesn't offer a US stock market index fund option.
Just in time for people's 401k/retirement contributions. Where to invest that cash when markets are frothy?
Same index funds as always. Don't try to time the market, especially a quarter century before you retire and start withdrawing.
Which funds do you buy?
