Laying up my treasures in that home above........
Trusting fully trusting in the Savior's love.....
Doing what I can for Heaven's Holy dove......
I'm getting ready to leave this world..........
The Chorus:
Gettin' ready...to leave this world.....[of sorrow]
Gettin' ready...for the gates of pearl......[gates of pearl]
Keeping my record bright....and watching both day and night....[day and night]
I'm getting ready...to leave this world....[this sinful world]
Verse Two:
Trusting in the riches of His saving grace.......
In each earthly trial...I His love can trace.....
Sure that up in Heaven...I shall find a place.....
And, I'm getting ready to leave this world..........
Verse Three:
To prepare a mansion...Jesus said I'll go............
If it were not true...I would have told you so....
Just a little while to linger here below.........
And, I'm getting ready to leave this world.....
The Chorus:
Gettin' ready...to leave this world.....[of sorrow]
Gettin' ready...for the gates of pearl......[gates of pearl]
Keeping my record bright....and watching both day and night....[day and night]
I'm getting ready...to leave this world....[this sinful world]
Tag
And...I'm getting ready to leave this world.....[this sinful world]
