When Jesus comes to reward His servants,
Whether it be noon or night,
Faithful to Him will He find us watching,
With our lamps all trimmed and bright?

CHORUS
Oh, can we say we are ready, brother -
Ready for the soul's bright home?
Say,will He find you and me still watching,
Waiting, waiting,when the Lord shall come?

If at the dawn of the early morning,
He shall call us one by one,
When to the Lord we restore our talents,
Will He answer thee,Well done?

CHORUS
Oh, can we say we are ready, brother -
Ready for the soul's bright home?
Say,will He find you and me still watching,
Waiting, waiting,when the Lord shall come?

Have we been true to the trust He left us?
Do we seek to do our best?
If in our hearts there is naught condemns us,
We shall have a glorious rest.

CHORUS
Oh, can we say we are ready, brother -
Ready for the soul's bright home?
Say,will He find you and me still watching,
Waiting, waiting,when the Lord shall come?

Blessed are those whom the Lord finds watching,
In His glory they shall share;
If He should come at the dawn or mid-night,
Will He find us watching there?

CHORUS
Oh, can we say we are ready, brother -
Ready for the soul's bright home?
Say,will He find you and me still watching,
Waiting, waiting,when the Lord shall come?
