A tremendously joyful anthem about “kingdom come!” Roy Belfield has artfully arranged this light and bouncy spiritual with wonderful interplay between voices. Optional solos give soprano and/or tenor stars a chance toshine, and a middle section split between four-part women and four-part men gives each section a chance to really show what they've got! “I Want to Be Ready” has contagious energy, and such a wonderful picture ofheaven – what unbridled happiness when we “walk in Jerusalem just like John.”
