CHORUS:
Getting ready to die,
Getting ready to die,
Getting ready to die,
O Zion, Zion.

1. When I set out, I was but young,
Zion, Zion,
But now my race is almost run,
Zion, Zion.

CHORUS.

2. Religion's like a blooming rose,
Zion, Zion,
And none but those that feel it knows,
Zion, Zion.
Cho. — Getting ready to die, &c.

3. The Lord is waiting to receive,
Zion, Zion,
If sinners only would believe,
Zion, Zion.
Chorus.

4. All those who walk in Gospel shoes,
Zion, Zion
This faith in Christ they'll never lose,
Zion, Zion.
Chorus.
