16601. Judgment Day Is Coming

1 Judgment day is com­ing,
Time is mov­ing on!
Are you rea­dy, bro­ther?
Hasten thee along;
Angels stand in wait­ing,
With the sev­en seals:
Hark! I hear the rum­bling
Of the char­iot wheels.

Refrain:
Chariot wheels are rum­bling,
Sinner, don’t de­lay;
Soon, so soon is com­ing
To us judg­ment day;
Chariot wheels are rum­bling,
Sinner, don’t de­lay;
Soon, so soon is com­ing
To us judg­ment day.

2 Chariot wheels are rum­bling,
Time is al­most gone;
Are you rea­dy, wait­ing,
With a heav’n­ly song?
Lamps all trimmed and burn­ing,
Pure and clear and bright?
Are you sure you’re rea­dy
For the com­ing sight? [Refrain]

3 God and all His angels,
Looking from the sky,
Knows us all and loves us,
Beckons us on high.
Oh! my err­ing brother,
Listen to the call,
Come with all your bur­dens,
There is room for all. [Refrain]
