Lost Dogs - Get Me Ready lyrics

Get me ready for the empty pocket Get me ready for the money The dirty bomb and the nuclear rocket Get me ready for milk and honey Get me ready for the Tribulation Get me ready for the Rapture For whatever evil situation And whatever good comes after Get me ready for it Get me ready for it Get me ready for it Get me ready for hate and love For a devil or an angel For the vulture or the holy dove For the banquet or the empty table For long life or early grave For the cross or for the bliss To be a free man or a shackled slave For helping hands or the Judas kiss Get me ready for it.... Get me ready for the signs and wonders For the absence and the silence For the sunshine or the rain and thunder The age of peace or the times of violence For doubt and faith, for fear and hope For the curses and the blessings Smooth sailing or the sinking boat For the trials and the testings Get me ready for the broken hearted The down trodden, deaf, blind, dumb and lame The growing numbers of friends departed For those who love you Or those who curse your name Lord, get me ready to see your face Or get me ready to face you For your justice, love and infinite grace Get me ready (for it) Get me ready (for it) Get me ready to embrace you
