Being in the
throes of death,
I shall take my last breath,
And the undertaker will lay my arms,
Across my chest.
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button3.jpg)
Oh, when before the judgment bar I stand,
Can I lift up holy hands,
And declare I have done my very best?
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button2.jpg)
Ah, 'tis a mind boggling thought.
But I am blood bought,
And I must strive to live above sin.
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button3.jpg)
Each and every day,
I must read God's word and pray.
Then, with His help I can make it in!
I know wrong from right!
For I've been shown the light!
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button.jpg)
I know the very extent of God's love,
Though I'm just a pilgrim and a stranger here,
In this world of doubt and fear,
Journeying toward my eternal home above.
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button3.jpg)
So, I'll keep hope in my soul,
And my eyes on the goal.
Heaven is now coming into view!
![](I_Must_Be_Ready_files/J_Button2.jpg)
In the twinkling of an eye,
Christ will appear in the Eastern sky,
And I shall bid this old world adieu!
