READY TO GO
|
|
Some people say that faith
|
Is just the dream of desperate men
|
I shake my head and say
|
This life's too short to play pretend
|
I know that Jesus called my name
|
He brought my heart to life again
|
You can read the look upon my face
|
And see my sights are set
|
On a far, far better place
|
|
Chorus
|
Oh get ready to go
|
When the trumpet blows from the eastern sky
|
Oh get ready to go
|
When they open the door to paradise
|
That's right, that's right
|
Don't forget your destiny
|
Sing the song
|
Carry on
|
Know the best is yet to be
|
|
Some people say that love
|
Will leave you lonely in the end
|
I felt like that before
|
I finally found a faithful friend
|
Heaven works its holy plan
|
By the mighty power of an unseen hand
|
There's a shining home for you and me
|
And we're just reaching out
|
To the One who holds the key
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Leave your burdens at the door
|
You won't need them any more
|
The Father's promise will not fail
|
Leave your tears
|
Leave your fears
|
And don't you bother to forward your mail
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Some people say that hope
|
Is really just a fleeting thing
|
Because they've never known
|
The hope that only God can bring
|
This might sound too good to be true
|
Just the way that miracles often do
|
Amazing grace is close at hand
|
And this song can't change your life
|
But I know that Jesus can
|
|
Chorus
