As recorded by GEORGE JONES:

Oh, I believe the time is coming when the Lord will come again
I believe the end is closer every day
Let's be ready for the judgement when we look upon his face
For he tells us in his word to watch and pray

We are living, surely living in the days he speaks about
I believe the end is nearing every door
So let's be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
And believe today in Matthew 24

While upon the Mount of Olives his disciples came to him
Saying tell us when these things are going to be
Jesus answered, "Be ye watching, let each one be free from sin
And take heed no man shall ever you deceive"

We are living, surely living in the days he speaks about
I believe the end is nearing every door
So let's be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
And believe today in Matthew 24

We are living surely living in the days he speaks about
I believe the end is nearing every door
So let's be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
And believe today in Matthew 24

As recorded by BETTY JEAN ROBINSON:

I believe the time is coming for our Lord to come again
I believe the end is nearing ev'ry door
I believe the good old Bible from beginning to the end
Just compare today with Matthew 24

While upon the Mount of Olives his disciples came to him
Saying tell us when these things are going to be
Jesus answered, "Be ye watching, let ev'ry man be free from sin
And take heed no man shall ever you deceive"

For we are living, surely living in the days he speaks about
All these things we now are having ev'ry day
Let us be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
For he tells us in his words to watch and pray

(Instrumental Break)

Many wars shall come upon us when the end of time is near
Many earthquakes will be numerous in those days
All these things today we're having and in Matthew it appears
We must live our life for Him and sing His praise

For we are living, surely living in the days he speaks about
All these things we now are having ev'ry day
Let us be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
For he tells us in his words to watch and pray

Let us be ready for his coming, let us meet him with a shout
For he tells us in his words to watch and pray
