Classic Poem

Are you ready for your Lord, should he come? should he come?
Are you ready for his summons home? (summons home?)
Does your anxious spirit burn,
His appearing to discern?
Are you ready if your Lord should come?
Oh, there'll be rejoicing when he comes? when he comes!
If we hear him saying:
“Children come! (“Children come!)
Come, ye blessed enter in,
I have cleans'd you from all sin!”
Oh, there'll be rejoicing when he comes!
Oh, be ready for him when he comes! when he comes!
Oh, be ready for him when he comes!
See! the saints enter in when he comes? when he comes!
To the wedding when the Bridegroom comes! (when he comes!)
Brightly burning is each light,
And in raiment spotless white,
See! the saints enter in when he comes!
Be it midnight, be it morning,
When he gives the solemn warning,
Oh, be ready, be ready when he comes!
