Upon This Rock cover
10. I Wish We'd All Been Ready
Album: Upon This Rock
Artist: Larry Norman
         
 

Life was filled with guns and war
and everyone 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

life was filled with guns and war
and everyone 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
how could you have been so blind
the father spoke the demons dined
the son has come and you've been left behind

you've been left behind
you've been left behind
