Lyrics:
I’m ready for the winds to change
I’m ready for a brighter day
I’m ready for the sun to shine down on me
I’m waiting for a song to sing
I’m looking for a brand new thing
I’m ready now to live a life that I believe
I want the world to turn because of love
And mercy to find each of us
Doing what we can to just believe
I want the world to know that You’re the One
Who fills me up and gives me hope
And brings about this change that’s in me
Oh yeah, I’m ready, yeah
You know I’m ready now
I’m ready for the truth to be
Something that can set us free
Does anybody still believe we’ll make it through
I’m ready now to take a stand
To live life for more than myself
Tell me now, my friend, are you ready, too
I can’t sit around waiting for it all to change
It’s gonna take every single one of us doing what we can
There’s lots of fighting in this world but there’s so much loving, too
So take my hand, I’m ready now for you
Lord knows I’m ready
You know I’m ready
I’m ready for the winds to change
I’m ready for a brighter day

Behind the Song:
“As I talk about this record being a prayer kind of record where you come to a place where you know you need to change, you seek God, you change and then you move on, I think ‘Ready’ is definitely one of those songs where you’re moving. You’ve seen all of the stuff, you’re taking it in, you’ve prayed and you think you heard from God and you think you are really ready to make a change not only in your personal life, but in lives around you and in your own world, in your community. So that’s definitely a song to motivate you to get up and do something about life and about your faith.” – Mac Powell (Third Day)
