Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
- Matthew 24:44
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.
- 1 Peter 3:15
The streets lie quiet, the night is long
A thousand voices drift, then they are gone
I will not lay my head, I will not fade
This is the moment, I will not trade
Eyes wide open, no retreat
Every step could be the seed
I will not waste the breath I breathe
I will not drift while the world still bleeds
If I am the only sign they see
Let my life burn honesty
I will not sleep, I will not stray
I’ll be ready when the dawn gives way
The silence tempts, it pulls like stone
The weight of comfort anchors my bones
But I will stand where the shadows press
One chance given, I won’t regress
Eyes wide open, no retreat
Every step could be the seed
I will not waste the breath I breathe
I will not drift while the world still bleeds
If I am the only sign they see
Let my life burn honesty
I will not sleep, I will not stray
I’ll be ready when the dawn gives way
No wasted hour, no wasted flame
The world is watching, remember the name
If I am the one, then let it be
The love of Christ alive in me
I will not waste the breath I breathe
I will not drift while the world still bleeds
If I am the only sign they see
Let my life burn honesty
I will not sleep, I will not stray
I’ll be ready when the dawn gives way
Awake, awake
