1. When the great day of all days comes to one and to all,
And the King of all kings shall appear,
There will be joy for the ones who are ready to go;
They shall rejoice when the day draweth near.
Refrain
There will be joy, joy for all,
When the redeemed, court shall come,
There will be joy, joy for all,
The redeemed shall reach their home.
2. Will you be ready to stand in the great court of God?
Do you fear for the day to arrive?
Will there be joy waiting you at the right hand of God?
Do you feel sure you’ve obtained lasting life?
Refrain
3. There will be joy for the ones who have followed the Lord,
Thro’ the toils of this life here below;
They will rejoice in the day when the summons shall come;
They will be willing and ready to go.
Refrain

| Notes: | With the melody shifting back and forth between the treble and bass clefts, especially in the refrain (see score for details), this song is better suited for a choir than for congregational singing. And even for a choir, it almost certainly needs rearranging so the lyrics more closely match the music |
