Representative Text

1 There’s a wondrous day approaching very near;
Unto you ’tis swiftly bearing joy or fear;
To the faithful ones deep gladness it will bring:
Are you ready for the coming of the King?

Refrain:
Are you ready for the coming of the King?
Are you ready for the coming of the King?
Will He find you watching, praying,
And no sacred trust betraying?
Are you ready for the coming of the King?

2 Are you seeking spotless garments then to wear?
Robes of righteousness, unsullied, white and fair?
Songs of welcome and rejoicing can you sing?
Are you ready for the coming of the King? [Refrain]

3 Shining angel throngs His advent will proclaim,
And the whole world will exalt His sacred name;
Earth and Heaven then with Jesus’ praise will ring:
Are you ready for the coming of the King? [Refrain]
