Story Behind the Song
This song was written for a Christian play I wrote several years ago. It poses the question to each of us, "Are You Ready?" The return of Christ Our Lord and Savior is near and if we aren't ready for his return it will be a grevious day. By the way... Are You Ready?
Lyrics
Do you think the time is near?
Do you know the Lord?
Do yo know salvation's path?
Do you know the Lord is coming back?
Can you feel the flames of hell?
Can you see the gates of pearl unveiled?
1. Take the word and travel far
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Do you seek to know the truth?
Spread the word and seek His holy power
Do you know that thousands will die?
Do you know my Lord is up on high?
Chorus
Listen, listen, listen are you ready?
Listen, listen, listen are you ready?
Do you hear the horses runnin'?
Do you hear the armies comin'?
Do you hear the lost one crying'?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
To meet the Lord
The seven seals have been unveiled
My Lord, my King, will soon prevail
2. Grab the lost and bring them in
Read the book, the holy book
Say it loud He's always near
But with faith your soul shall never fear
Do yo know the dead in Christ will rise?
If you know the Lord, look to the sky
Chorus
3. Will you sacrifice for him?
Do you know He shed his blood?
Hear the trumpets the time is right?
Mount your horse the Lord is full of might
Raise your hands and praise him on high
Yes the time is now, the time is nigh
Chorus
Bridge
My Lord on high is coming
My Lord on high is coming
My Lord on high is coming soon
(repeat)
Why are you waiting?
Why are you waiting?
What are you waiting for?
(repeat)
Why are you waiting?
My Lord is coming
He's coming back very soon!
Listen, listen, listen are you ready?
Listen, listen, listen are you ready?
(repeat)
Listen
Are you ready?
