Chorus to another version-

Are you ready (are you ready)
Are you ready (are you ready)
Are you ready for the opening skies?
Are you ready (are you ready)
Are you ready (are you ready)
Are you ready for that glad surprise?

Then there is the Hoffman-Sankey version (Cyberhymnal)

The Lord is coming by and by,
Be ready when He comes;
He comes from His fair home on high,
Be ready when he comes;
He is the Lord our Righteousness,
And comes His chosen ones to bless,
And at His father's throne confess;
Be ready when He comes.

Will you be ready when the Bridegroom comes?
etc.

One hymn sung in Black churches-

We Shall See the King

There's a blessed time coming, coming soon,
It may be evening morning or at noon,
The wedding of the bride, united with the Groom,
We shall see the King when He comes.

2
Are you ready should the Savior call today? (call today)
Would Jesus say, "Well done" or "Go away"? (Go away)
My home is for the pure, the vile can never stay.
We shall see the King when He comes.
etc.
--------
Will your soul be ready for mansions bright?
etc.

Oh, be ready when He comes,
He will soon appear with His reward,
etc.

There seem to be many, old and new.

And the reverse- You'd best be ready when the horned one comes (I think this is 'white' only).
