I’ll Be Ready (Pollock)

Composer: Charles Pollock, 1906

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.
