Brother and sis­ter, look up ’tward the sky;
The King soon is com­ing, your re­demp­tion draw­eth nigh;
Then lift up your head, re­joice and be gay—
The Bride­groom is com­ing to catch His bride away.

Refrain

Then be rea­dy, O, be rea­dy;
The Bride­groom is com­ing, to catch His bride away;
Sinners will fear Him, saints all will hear Him;
And rise up to meet Him, and join the bright ar­ray.

Refrain

Kingdoms are fall­ing, judg­ments now have come;
The na­tions are trem­bling, for they see their fi­nal doom;
The hea­vens shall shake, the hearts of men fail,
Those who are not rea­dy, you’ll hear them weep and wail.

Refrain

Then O, be rea­dy, do not now de­lay;
The Bride­groom is coming soon to catch His bride away;
Yes, Je­sus our Lord in glo­ry shall come,
For those who are rea­dy, to bear them safe­ly home.

Refrain

Signs of His com­ing, soon will be ful­filled;
The Lord has a peo­ple who in faith ob­ey His will;
A bright gold­en crown, a robe spot­less white,
He’ll give all the faith­ful, who win the sac­red fight.

Refrain
