ONE MORNING while I was visiting in Mary’s home, I found this golden-haired little girl busily working in her bedroom. She was putting everything in order for the day. I said to her, “Oh, Mary, how nice and neat your room looks with everything put in order!”
“Yes,” she said, “I am putting it in order because Jesus might come today.”
Jesus is coming again,
He’s coming again for me,
Jesus is coming again,
I’ll turn to John’s Gospel and see—
The chapter is fourteen, verses two and three,
He’s coming again,
The words are so plain,
And that for me.
“They that were ready went in with Him...: and the door was shut.” Matthew 25:10.
“Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.” Luke 12:40.
“Behold, I come quickly.” Revelation 22:7.
