If you're not living like you should be living
You better give all that you've got
'Cause when you hear the trumpet sound
You're already off the ground, ready or not
If your diary is not all what it should be
You'd better rearrange the plot
'Cause in the twinkling of an eye
There'll be Jesus in the sky, ready or not
Time has come to change from cold to hot
By the time you see Him there
You'll be flying through the air, ready or not
So if you're waiting for just the right occasion
You'd better give your finest shot
You got no time left to lose
Turn to God or sing the blues, ready or not
If you're not living like you should be living
You'd better give all that you've got
Cause by the time you see his face
You'll be on your way to space, ready or not
Time has come to change from cold to hot
'Cause in the twinkling of an eye
There'll be Jesus in the sky, ready or not
ready or not
ready or not, ooh, ooh
ready or not
By the time you see him there
You'll be in the middle of the air
ready or not
