So You Also Must Be Ready - Matthew 24: 44

This world promises no guarantees
for we know not how long we've got
every breath is a gift from above
till that day when we reach the final spot

When Jesus was here on earth
He clearly made His message known
that one day He'd return to judge
this world in respect as a living stone

This message clearly spoke about this
that we must be ready for His return
for whenever that happens to come about
it's ultra important to find yourself done

The Son of Man will come back
for that, there's absolutely no doubt
the hout of time will sound an alarm
to open your eyes to what it's all about

So be absolutely sure to be ready
be living for Jesus every moment
then you will know Jesus is Lord
this being what eternally will be meant

(So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.)
Matthew 24: 44(NIV)
