Will You Be Ready?
by Judy Turney © 2005

As you walk along in this old world,Do your burdens seem hard to bear
When you travel down that lonesome road,not going anywhere
Is your heart so heavy laden, darkness follows where ere you go
Does it seem at times you can not go one step farther on
Just lift your eyes towards Heaven, A light so bright you'll see
Two loving hands stretched out to you pleading, please come to me

Do you see the love from Heaven, flowing down in bright array
Do you hear a voice that's calling you, My child don't go away
Do you see the hands stretched out to you, His arms are open wide
Do you feel the touch of His loving arms, He's right there by your side

Don't close your eyes so you can't see, His glowing love abounds
Don't close your ears so you can't hear, His voice is all around
Don't walk away from His special love, He's reaching out to you
Don't turn your back on His special gift, your life He will renew.

You see He once was crucified, For us He paid the price
Although we are unworthy.He gave for us His life
Because He died we now can live, in Heaven forevermore
Won't you listen to His call, He's knocking at your hearts door.
