Are You Ready for the Judgment Day? (Fillmore)

Christ the Lord has gone to glo­ry

But He’s com­ing back again;

He is com­ing with His an­gels and

A sword of fie­ry flame;

Then all na­tions

tribes and peo­ple shall

Be ga­thered round His throne

To re­ceive re­ward and re­com­pense

For all that they have done.

Are you rea­dy for that judg­ment day?

Are you rea­dy for that judg­ment day?

You must stand be­fore the Lord

To re­ceive your just re­ward—

Are you rea­dy for that judg­ment day?

There will be a se­pa­ra­tion

On that fi­nal judg­ment day;

On the right

the good; the left

the bad

Who walked in sin’s broad way;

Come

ye bless­èd

then the Judge will say

To those up­on the right

But de­part to those up­on the left

To dark­est end­less night.

If you spend your time in seek­ing

After wealth and earth­ly fame

Unrepentant

dis­be­liev­ing in

His ho­ly bless­èd name

If you live in world­ly plea­sures and

The Lord of life de­ny

Indignation

wrath and ang­uish is

Your por­tion when you die.

Now pre­pare to meet your mak­er

Choose today the bet­ter part;

While you hear His ear­nest plead­ing voice

Oh

hard­en not your heart;

Seek Him while He may be found

and call

Upon Him while He’s near

Lest He laugh at your ca­la­mi­ty

And mock when comes your fear.
