I’ll Be Ready (Pirtle)

O ’tis sweet to sing this sto­ry

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes;

It to tell is all my glo­ry

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes.

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes;

O ’tis sweet to sing this sto­ry

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes.

All I am to Him I’m giv­ing

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes;

Day by day for Him I’m liv­ing

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes.

Striving on

His will ob­ey­ing

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes;

Working

watch­ing

ev­er pray­ing

I’ll be rea­dy when He comes.

Sinners there in dark­ness stray­ing

O be rea­dy when He comes;

Do not far­ther risk de­lay­ing

But be rea­dy when He comes.
