I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

I want to be ready
I got to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

Three gates in the north
Three gates in the south
Three gates in the east
Three gates in the west

Twelve gates to the city
Twelve gates to the city
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

Just there's one thing I want you to know
That I am glad when the morning comes
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

Oh they tell me that the streets over there
Are painted with gold
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

You see I, I've never ever been to heaven
But you know I been told
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

All the saints of God
Will be gathering home
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

Three gates in the north
Three gates in the south
Three gates in the east
Three gates in the west

Twelve gates to the city
Twelve gates to the city
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John

I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
To walk in Jerusalem
Just like John
