Today’s DC Talk Month Song of the Day is “I Wish We’d All Been Ready” from their 2001 album Intermission. This song is track #16 of 19.
“I Wish We’d All Been Ready” is one of the four total new songs on Intermission: The Greatest Hits, released in 2001. This song however is recorded live, and isn’t studio like the two truly new songs (Chance and Sugercoat It). This song is very powerful, and tells a tale of the Rapture when the church will be taken from the Earth and tells of the everyday situation people will be in when it happens. Like the title says, “I wish we’d all been ready.” An absolutely beautiful, touching, sad song that really makes you think, hope and pray. Not to mention inspire you to tell others about The Second Coming!
I Wish We’d All Been Ready DC Talk Song Lyrics
Life was filled with guns and war
And all of us 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
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
The Father spoke the demons died
How could you have been so blind
There’s no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you’ve been left behind
I hope we’ll all be ready you’ve been left behind
I hope we’ll all be ready you’ve been left behind
I hope we’ll all be ready you’ve been left behind

About DC Talk Month
March 2013 is dedicated to the Christian rock pioneers DC Talk, arguably my favorite Christian CCM (Contemporary Christian Music) rock band and follows January 2013 which was Demon Hunter Month and February 2013 which was Becoming the Archetype Month. March will feature songs from most of dc Talk’s discography (1992′s Free At Last, 1995′s Jesus Freak, 1998′s Supernatural and 2000′s Intermission) featured daily throughout the month, one a day. Whether you like rock/alternative/hip-hop music, believe in God or not, check these songs out as you may be pleasantly surprised and hopefully you will discover some new-to-your-ears music to enjoy. DC Talk features lots of variety in their tunes, from hard rock to hip-hop to slow ballads that will pull on your heartstrings to singable power pop, so there will most certainly be something you’ll like. Enjoy!
