[Verse 1]
A
Laying up my treasures in that home above
                              B        E
Trusting fully trusting in my savior’s love
A                             D
Doing what I can for Heaven’s holy dove
A                    E          A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world

[Chorus]
A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world of sorrow
                          B        E
I’m gettin’ ready for the gates of pearl
A
Keeping my record right
F#m
Watching both day and night
A                    E          A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world

[Verse 2]
A
To prepare a mansion Jesus said I’ll go
                                 B        E
If it were not true I would have told you so
A                             D
Just a little while to linger here below
A                    E          A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world

[Chorus]
A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world of sorrow
                          B        E
I’m gettin’ ready for the gates of pearl
A
Keeping my record right
F#m
Watching both day and night
A                    E          A
I’m gettin’ ready to leave this world
