1 Oh! there is a time when the message will come,
Don’t you want to be ready to go?
Oh! sinner the Saviour invites you today,
Will you and make ready to go?
Refrain:
Ready to go,
Ready to go,
Don’t you want to be ready to go?
Ready to go,
Ready to go,
Don’t you want to be ready to go?
2 Today is the day of salvation for all,
Can you say you are ready to go?
A home and a crown is awaiting for thee,
Will you come and be ready to go? [Refrain]
3 Oh! yes there’s a time when the message will come,
Are you willing and ready to go?
This moment the Saviour is pleading for thee,
Sinner, say, are you ready to go? [Refrain]
