I Wish We'd All Been Ready

Life was filled with guns and war
and all of us got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been ready

Children died the days grew cold
a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
the Son has come and you've been left behind

A man and wife asleep in bed
she hears a noise and turns her head he's gone
I wish we'd all been ready

Two men walking up a hill
one disappears and one's left standing still
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
the Son has come and you've been left behind

Children died the days grew cold
a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
the Son has come and you've been left behind


The Father spoke
the demons dined
how could you
have been so blind

There's no time to change your mind
the Son has come and you've been left behind

I hope we'll all be ready
you've been left behind
I hope we'll all be ready
you've been left behind
I hope we'll all be ready
you've been left behind


e'll all be ready
you've been left behind
