1.  Soon rapture will be over

The slack will stunned recover

None can think that he can pray

Pray His grace to aid and stay

A fear will all envelop

An eerie state develop

As snare that day will come; Prepare !

CHORUS

Prepare yourself to meet your God

Change your way, watch and pray

When He comes as King and the angles sing,

“Hallelujah Hallelujah”

Be ready to say, “Lord Jesus, comes, Hallelujah”

Hallelujah, Hallelujah !

O ! Be ready to stay, “Lord Jesus, come Hallelujah”.

2.Your glorious past endeavor

Can hold you worthy never,

Naught can stand you in god stead

If by Spirit you’re not led

By His will, be you holy

In spirit, soul and body

Be kept by Him until He comes!

3.Like those, the few in Sardis

Are you with garments spotless?

Such elect to Him will fly

In the twinkling of an eye

That God may say, “You’re worthy”;

Not come upon you stealthy,

Watch sinless at the tow’r, He comes !

4.Your cross may seem too heavy

Your grief to share none ready.

“O, in whom can I confide?

O, there’s none to take my side !”

Fret not thus; Jesus Loves you !

All things are of Him: He’s true

Cheer up, put off your gloom, He comes !

5.“That Jesus soon is coming

Is just a fancy thinking”

Scoffers saying thus will rise

And your zeal for God despise

Salvation now is nearer

Then when you met the Saviour

He that shall come will come, it’s time !
