When Jesus shall come again
By and by
I’ll be ready to go;
He’s promised to gather
His saints in the sky—
I’ll be ready to go.
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready to go;
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready to go.
No matter what day or what
Hour it shall be
I’ll be ready to go;
The signs of His coming
I’m watching to see—
I’ll be ready to go.
Should He come in morning
or
At the noon day
I’ll be ready to go;
Or late in the evening
As light fades away—
I’ll be ready to go.
But if the Lord tarry till
Midnight so late
I’ll be ready to go;
With lamp trimmed and burning
I’ll patiently wait—
I’ll be ready to go.
I long for His coming
I
Sigh for sweet rest;
I’ll be ready to go;
He’ll take me to Heaven
The home of the blest—
I’ll be ready to go.
