Are you going to be ready
Brian Bevels 1977 (Centre al)
People don't understand
Why the world is in the shape it's in
How bout were taking God out of everything
That's where we should begin.
We're trying to take Christ out of Christmas
They've already taken prayer out of school
The world says if you believe in God
Then you are crazy and a fool.
Christians are not standing firm
On what they say they have believed
Satan has slowly crept into their lives
And the (so called christians) have been decided.
It's time to dust off our Bibles
And we need to study and pray
Our Lord is soon coming to get us
Are you going to be ready on that day
I am asking all of you people
To open your blinded eyes
Are you going to be ready
When Jesus splits the eastern skies ?
