Are you ready for the day when Jesus will come back?
Story behind the song
I'd been listening to a lot of Ricky Skaggs and Ralph Stanley when I wrote this one.

Are You Ready For That Day
by James Stephen Green - Copyright ©
VERSE 1
When the Son of man comes to claim His own . . . Are you ready for that day?
When from this world of pain we've flown . . .Are you ready for that day?
We'll meet Him in the air, there'll be no crying there.
Those who took the straight and narrow way . . .Are you ready for that day?
VERSE 2
We can sing His praise forever more . . .Are you ready for that day?
When we finally reach that Golden Shore . . .Are you ready for that day?
If you will just allow His resurrection power
To cleanse your soul and wash your sins away, You'll be ready for that day.
VERSE 3
For God so loved both you and me and wants us ready for that day
He sent His Son to Calvary to provide for us a way
He died upon a cross to save that which was lost.
It's all because of God's amazing grace . . .Are you ready for that day?
If you will just allow His resurrection power
To cleanse your soul and wash your sins away, You'll be ready for that day.
