Are You Rapture Ready?

Here I sit just wasting away.
   Trying to put words together but I’ve nothing to say.
Well I just had a flash, the rapture is what comes to mind.
   And the tribulation and the ones left behind.
Where do you stand do you believe in our Lord?
   And after the rapture comes things will be difficult and hard.
Revelations is the book I truly love to read.
   It tells of Jesus’ second coming on a mighty white stead.
It’s full of predictions that are being filled every day.
   You really need to read it, and learn how to pray.
If you haven’t been saved, it’s still not too late.
   Give your life to Jesus or seal your own fate.
I pray you choose the first rather than the latter.
   It’s your salvation that is what really matters.
They say time maybe getting short, no one really knows.
   I sure don’t want to be the one to step on our Saviors toes.
For someone who didn’t have nothing to say, I’ve said quite a lot.
   And I praise God every day for all that I’ve got.
