Randy Stonehill Album: Return To Paradise Track: Ready to Go
Ready to Go Lyrics
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 You can read the look upon my face And see my sights are set On a far, far better place

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 love Will leave you lonely in the end I felt like that before I finally found a faithful friend 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 To the One who holds the key
Chorus
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
Chorus
Some people say that hope Is really just a fleeting thing Because they've never known The hope that only God can bring 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
