Ever Ready and Be Prepared

Pray before you're prayed upon
Help others before you look for help
Love before you yearn for love
Take care of yourself
Before you're being taken care of
Plan for the future before you retire
Make friends before you're left alone 
Speak out before you complain
Try your best before you give up
All these start from you before others lend a hand
As nothing is taken for granted
Maybe except Jesus redemption on the cross 
Ever ready and be prepared 
To give and take 
To work hard to attain
To pray and to follow the right path
Before it's too late
As God  only helps those who help themselves
As God only helps those who want to accept him
As God only helps those who want to accept his advice
