Seeing the signs, approaching the time,
A day when a choice will demand,
Rising or fall, yeah, a call to us all,
Something I've got to understand.
Well, there's a way that we can feel in the heart that hope we all want to share,
Now, reach out and go, ain't no better way to show,
Nothing's here for play, so get out of the way.
'Cause we're getting ready,
Lord, we're holding steady,
Getting ready, all through the night,
Getting ready,
Lord, we're holding steady,
Living on borrowed time.
Well, I know we can make it, oh Lord, if we try,
I can't help but see the love that we deny,
Now, give us the strength and the hope to carry on,
We'll raise our voices to the sky.
Well, there's a way that we can feel in the heart that hope we all want to share,
Now, reach out and go, ain't no better way to show,
Nothing's here for play, so get out of the way.
'Cause we're getting ready,
Lord, we're holding steady,
Getting ready, all through the night,
Getting ready,
Lord, we're holding steady,
Living on borrowed time.
Well, there's a way that we can feel in the heart that hope we all want to share,
Now, reach out and go, ain't no better way to show,
Nothing's here for play, so get out of the way.
'Cause we're getting ready,
Lord, we're holding steady,
Getting ready, all through the night,
Getting ready,
We're getting ready,
Getting ready, all through the night, (we're getting ready)
Getting ready,
We're getting ready,
Getting ready, all through the night,
Getting ready,
We're getting ready,
Getting ready, all through the night.
