Be Ready

THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD WILL PASS AWAY,
 WE NEED TO BE READY FOR THE COMING OF THAT DAY.
 THE TWIN TOWERS WERE STANDING SO PROUD AND TALL,
 LITTLE DID WE KNOW THAT ONE DAY THEY WOULD FALL,

 WE NEED TO KEEP OUR EYES ON THE HIGH TOWER ABOVE,
 HE SENT HIS SON TO DIE ON THE CROSS, BECAUSE OF HIS LOVE.
 HE TOLD US TO BE READY TO WATCH AND PRAY,
 HE'S GOING TO COME BACK AND HE'S GOING TO TAKE US AWAY.

 IT WILL HAPPEN IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE,
 WE WON'T HAVE TIME TO GO GET READY OR TO SAY GOOD BYE.
 WE NEED TO KEEP OUR TRUST,HOPE AND FAITH IN HIM,
 JESUS WILL ALWAYS BE THERE, ON HIM WE CAN DEPEND
