Christ is coming are you
ready?
He is coming for His own;
He will call them up to meet
Him,
And will place them on His
throne.
He may come, we know at
midnight,
When the world in slumber
lies,
Or it may be in the morning,
Ere the day dawns in the
skies,
“Watch ye therefore,” for ye
know not
What the hour your Lord will
come,
Whether in the morn or
midnight,
Or in the evening gloom,
Are your thoughts of Him
when toiling
Mid the busy cares of day?
As the hours of night are passing
Do you wake to think and
pray?
Is your heart a glow at
even,
As the sun sinks in the
west,
And the heaven’s glowing
splendor
Brings sweet thoughts of
home and rest!
Blessed rest from toil and
sorrow,
Rest from suffering, pain
and woe,
And a home with Christ in
heaven,
Happy home to which we go!
