People, Get Ready Jesus is Coming Soon

The lyrics to this inspired song are both Biblical and relevant!  You can start the song and follow along with the lyrics below.  To make it even more interesting, I provided a few Bible verses next to the lyrics (just put your mouse over the verse for a pop-up).


Lord, I'm ready now
I'm waiting for Your triumphant return (Revelation 1:7)
You're coming so soon (Matthew 24:32-34)
This world has nothing for me
I find my peace and joy solely in You
Only in You (John 14:27)
I want the world to see that
You're alive and living well in me (Ephesians 1:13-14)
Let me be a part of the harvest
For the days are few (Revelation 14:15)
You're coming soon

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
To take from the world His own
We'll be going home (oh yeah)
We'll be going home


There will be a day
When we will be divided right and left (Matthew 25:32-33)
For those who know Him
And those who do not know
Those who know Him well
Will meet Him in the air (1 Thes 4:16-17)
Hallelujah! (2 Timothy 4:8; Titus 2:13)
God is with us
Those who do not know
They will hear "Depart, I knew you not" (Matthew 25:41)
For, my friends, you see
There will be a day when we'll be counted
So know Him well, know Him well
(1 John 3:5-6)

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 well be going home
People, get ready Jesus is coming
To take from the world His own

The final place in scripture I'd like to reference is the last two verses of the Bible,  Revelation 22:20-21:

He who testifies to these things (Jesus) says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” 
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen.

We shorten those verses to one succinct and endearing 
word to capture its essence, 
"Maranatha!"

To learn more about why there are many reasons that those who study Bible prophecy believe people should be getting ready for Jesus' soon return, be sure to check out  Pray That You May Escape.
