Are you ready (Ready?      Are you ready?)
       | Em    A G   | Em  A       G   |
Are you ready (Ready?      Are you ready? Get ready!)

[Verse 1]
        A7
Are you ready to meet Jesus?
        A7
Are you where you ought to be?
        A7
Will He know you when He sees you
           A7
Or will He say, “Depart from Me”?

[Chorus]
       | Em  A G   | Em  A   G   |
Are you ready?          (Get ready!) Hope you’re ready!

    | Em     A G   | Em  A       G   |
Am I ready? (Ready?     (Are you ready?)

[Verse 2]
     A7
Am I ready to lay down my life for the brethren
       A7
And to take up my cross?
          A7
Have I surrendered to the will of God
        A7
Or am I still acting like the boss?

[Chorus]
       | Em  A G   | Em  A   G   |
Am I ready?             (Get ready!) Hope I’m ready!

[Verse 3]
        A7
When destruction cometh swiftly
               A7
And there’s no time to say a fare-thee-well
           A7
Have you decided whether you want to be
   A7
In heaven or in hell?

[Verse 3]
                  A7
Have you got some unfinished business?
         A7
Is there something holding you back?
        A7
Are you thinking for yourself
           A7
Or are you following the pack?

                  (Are you ready?)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready?)

[Verse 4]
        A7
Are you ready for the judgment?
        A7
Are you ready for that terrible swift sword?
        A7
Are you ready for Armageddon?
        A7
Are you ready for the day of the Lord?

[Chorus]
             | Em    A  G   | Em  A   G   |
       Are you ready             (Get ready!)
