Song Lyrics


Ready To Go
by Randy Stonehill

Album: Return to Paradise


Some people say that faith is just the dream of desperate men,
I shake my head and say, "This life's too short to play pretend,"
I know that Jesus called my name; he brought my heart to life again,
And you can read the look upon my face, and see my sights are set on a far, far better place.

I say, oh, get ready to go when the trumpet blows from the eastern sky,
Oh, get ready to go when they open the door to paradise,
That's right, that's right - don't forget your destiny,
Sing the song, carry on and know the best is yet to be.

Some people say that love will leave you lonely in the end,
I felt like that before; I finally found a faithful friend,
And Heaven works its holy plan by the mighty power of an unseen hand,
There's a shining home for you and me, and we're just reaching out for the one who holds the key.

Oh, get ready to go when the trumpet blows from the eastern sky,
Oh, get ready to go when they open the door to paradise,
That's right, that's right - don't forget your destiny,
Sing the song, carry on, know the best is yet to be.

Leave your burdens at the door; you won't need them any more,
The Father's promise will not fail,
Leave your tears, leave your fears, and don't you bother to forward your mail.

Oh, get ready to go when the trumpet blows from the eastern sky,
Oh, get ready to go when they open the door to paradise,
That's right, that's right - don't forget your destiny,
Sing the song, carry on, know the best is yet to be.

Some people say that hope is really just a fleeting thing because they've never known the hope that only God can bring,
And this might sound too good to be true, just the way that miracles often do,
Amazing grace is close at hand, and this song can't change your life...but I know that Jesus can.

Oh, get ready to go when the trumpet blows from the eastern sky,
Oh, get ready to go when they open the door to paradise,
That's right, that's right - don't forget your destiny,
Sing the song, carry on and know the best is yet to be,
That's right, that's right - don't forget your destiny,
Sing the song, carry on and know the best is yet to be.

Are you ready?
Are you ready to go?
Yeah now,
Come on everybody, get ready.
(ad lib)
