I want to be rea­dy,
I want to be rea­dy,
And our Christ we then shall crown,
When He makes His peo­ple one,
Bringing the sheaves at set of sun
Bringing the sheaves at set of sun
There came a dream so fair,
start
Daughter of Zion, now re­joice;
Loud let your prais­es ring!
The sun breaks forth in end­less day—
The ho­ly ci­ty com­ing down,
Our feet this ho­ly day shall stand
Shine forth up­on our cloud­ed hills?
Our feet this ho­ly day shall stand
Jesus, call Thou me.
A Child is born in Beth­le­hem
And when the bat­tle’s ov­er, we shall wear a crown
Thus saith the Lord to His elect,
We shall wear a crown

Je­ru­sa­lem

John said the city was just four­square,
John said the city was just four­square,
There’ll be sing­ing, there’ll be shout­ing
We can see that dis­tant home,
Joy, joy, there’ll be joy by and by,
Joy, joy, there’ll be joy by and by,
Beside the tem­ple there.
No dark­ness to sha­dow the day;
See, thy Sav­ior comes to thee,
The city of the King!
The beau­ti­ful land of rest.
And God Him­self shall dwell with men,
We come to join the hum­ble train
Among these dark sa­tan­ic mills?
We come to join the hum­ble train
’Twas that gave us Christ to save us;
He lies with­in a low­ly stall,
Wear a crown, wear a crown, away ov­er Jor­dan!
And what then is Je­ru­sa­lem,
Wear a crown (wear a crown)
