Be Ready

Be ready for the Lord on high
Ready for that clouded sky

Be ready at the Master’s hand
Ready for the Promised Land

Be ready with the Word in mind
Ready to that darkness bind

Be ready with the hand to heal
Ready to prove that God is real

Be ready with pure heart and eyes
Ready when He comes to rise

Be ready for that trumpet blast
Ready to go home at last

Yes, Jesus tells us to be ready for His return. A timely message, John! Love, Kim
