I wish We'd All Been Ready

[Steve M.]

Another new video. Not sure how old the song is, but I remember it from childhood vaguely. One of my sisters brought it up during the thanksgiving holiday and I thought, maybe I could make it into a video. I trued to use some topics topics that were in this months connecting the dots as well.

I Wish We'd All Been Ready
By: Larry Norman

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 died
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

That song is by Larry Norman. I was a big fan of his in my Born Again Christian days in the 70's. He had some other politically oriented songs. Unfortunately, they all had the message of accepting Jesus and everything would be OK.

Hi Burma, I'll Edit that with the correct info. I know it is a very christian song but the video I think avoided using particularly 'religious' images. Thanks for the info.
