Ready Or Not 03:12
Ready or not, you’re never gonna stop the sun from rising Winter or spring, summer and fall, from coming round Every eye will see Him in the sky with all the angels Ready or not, nothing’s gonna stop the Great Day coming Ready or not, we’re making our plans for the future We got to go here; we’ve got to be there, no time to waste Someone outside is knocking at your door; Who’s that calling? Ready or not, one day it’s gonna stop, the time is near Like a star in the night, coming to life right before us He will arrive but nobody knows the day or the hour You want to be sure, waiting by the door dressed and ready Ready or not, I don’t want you miss the midnight cry. One of these days a shout will go out We’ll look up and see His face We’d better wake up, you don’t want to leave it too late Ready or not, you can read all the signs a storm is coming People will mourn, and people will weep with tears of joy I know it’s true, there’s nothing you can prove, but I’m no gambler Ready or not, you’re already part of the Great Story. Ready or not, soon it’s going to stop, the Lord is near. Ready or not.

She’s 91 and he’s 94 – look at them bopping on the ballroom floor Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom You’ve got one life with so much left to give They say ‘better move over, get out of the way, Why don’t old people just f-fade away Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom You’ve got one life with so much left to give Come on, take that life down off the shelf You could bring a miracle to someone else Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom You’ve got one life with so much love to give One of these days we’re going to fly away And leave this world behind A dream come true can be a tree of life Take one step at a time. Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom. Boom baby boom You’re not dead yet, you’ve got one life to live All of my life I’ve been working hard and I don’t want to cruise I get so bored waiting to die, gotta find me something to do. You think life is over and you’ve had your chance But there’s still time for one more dance Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom You’ve got one life with so much left to give Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom Boom baby boom, Boom baby boom You’ve got one life with so much left to give

We’ve seen fire and we’ve see rain Cried the tears and felt the pain But we never thought this could happen. We’ve known hard times and two world wars Thought we’d seen it all before We never thought this could happen. And from sea to shining sea This land of ours was free But now, be careful what you say; Though we got what we wanted We lost what we had We never thought this could happen. I guess at first they made us smile, Feel good for a while But we never thought this could happen The foundations have all gone And they say we’re moving on We never thought this could happen. Yesterday we felt secure But now I’m not so sure And things may never be the same. Cold, cold hearts and empty eyes How could we believe a lie We never thought this could happen. It’s so hard to understand The minds of other men When just like them, we want the best Empty beds and photographs Memories are all we have We never thought this could happen. We never thought this could happen.

I sit at the table where I know I’ll get fed I’ll fall up the stairs on my way to the bed All I need is home somewhere All I need is home I’ll stand at the doorway and take in some air I’ll sit by the fire and save a place for you there All I need is home somewhere All I need is home All I need is home somewhere All I need is home

I can hear a voice whispering in the breeze Listen to the birds crying ‘mercy please’ But it’s all about man and his selfish need for more. Business is business and business must grow Everybody has a price so I’ve been told But something so precious is worth more than your gold. We’re never satisfied Enough is never enough When will be realise a change is down to us There’s gonna come a time When everything’s got to run out When will we hear you say Enough is enough These trees have been standing for hundreds of years Giving us life, helping us breathe But lately it feels like sitting with a dying friend. Now you’ve got you plans to cut them all down Silence the music, ravage the ground But we want to tell you we don’t want you around ‘cos you’re never satisfied, enough is never enough When will you realise, a change is down to us There’s gonna come a time when everything’s got to run out When will we hear you say, Enough is Enough Well I can hear a voice whispering in the breeze Listen to the birds crying ‘mercy please’ But it’s all about man and his selfish need for more

As I was sleeping I had a dream I went out walking across the fields The clouds had gathered, and the rain came down I took some shelter in an empty house The roof was leaking and the rain poured in I tried to fix it, patch it up again The wind was blowing and the rains came down The water kept rising, I feared I’d drown I heard a voice, calling to me And it was saying “come follow Me The house you’re building, it cannot stand Build on the Rock and not on sand” I left that morning at the break of day The skies were clearing but I lost my way I met a stranger who looked like you He smiled and told me what I should do I heard a voice calling to me “There is a new song for you to sing, The house you’re building cannot stand Build on the Rock and not on sand” As I was sleeping I had a dream

Call On Me 04:06
Here I am, when will I be found by you x2 O My love, call on Me God is moving, over the nations And He’s calling to you and to me Saying ‘if you seek My face, then you will find me And I will have mercy, I want you to know me Just like I know you’ Here I am, when will I be found by you Here I am, I’ll let myself be found by you. O My love, call on Me. You are holy, awesome in beauty But we’re just too blind to see And we’ve turned our face away from all of Your goodness Made ourselves idols Now all that we worship is dust at our feet. How long must I stretch out My hand I’m waiting here to heal your land Call on Me, call on Me. Here I am children People as one beggar to another, I’ll take you to a place where there’s bread If you’re thirsty, we can go up to the fountain of life. How long must I stretch out My hand I’m waiting here to heal your land Call on Me, call on Me. Here I am children O my love, call on Me.
