He Said Be Ready
from “Mom’s Journals”

May 12

^AmThe time has come
^EThe hour is now
^AmThe day is come
^CWe must run.

The Lord said
I will tell you when
I will give you peace
And then
(verse)

^AmHe said be ready
^EHe said be waiting
^AmHe said he’d come
^EIn the night

^AmSpread my word
^ETo all people
^AmBe heard
^EBy every nation

Sing a song
Shout it o’er the hills
Let them know
That I died to set them free
