People Get Ready Lyrics

Verse 1:
Lord I'm ready now.
I'm waiting for your triumphant return. (You're coming so soon).
This world has nothing for me,
I find my peace and joy solely in You. (Only in You).
I want the world to see,
You're alive and living well in me.
Let me be a part,
of the harvest for the days are few. (You're coming soon).Chorus:
So People get ready,
Jesus is coming soon
we'll be going home.
People get ready, Jesus is coming
to take from the world his own.
People get ready, Jesus is coming.
Soon we'll be going home.
People get ready, Jesus is coming
soon we'll be going home. (We'll be going home).

Verse 2:
Theres a day that comes
when we will be divided right and left.
(For those who know Him and those that do not know).
And those whoknow Him well, will meet Him in the air.
Hallelujah! (God is within us).
And those that do not know, they will hear "Depart I knew you not."
For my friends you see,
there will be a day when we'll be counted.
So know Him well, know Him well.Chorus(To take His own, to take His own...).
(We'll be going home, we'll be going home...).
For my friends you see,
there will be a day when we'll be counted.
So know him well, know him well.Chorus 1xPeople get ready
