I'm Not Ready

Every time I read that story again

I wanna run and take the nails out

You remind me that those nails are mine

Once and for all to the end (Hebrews 9:26)

I’m not ready for this

I’m not ready yet

I’m not ready

For this ending

But it’s not over yet

You were speaking to a group last night

You asked someone to lay their pride out

I turned to see who it could be

You were looking me dead in the eye

I’m not ready for this

I’m not ready yet

I’m not ready

For this ending

But it’s not over yet

I’m not ready for this

I’m not ready yet

I’m not ready

For this ending

But it’s not over yet

I’ve been fighting against myself

And I’ve torn myself to pieces

I hear You calling, God, I hear You calling

“Stand up, stand up

And spend yourself for Jesus”

Too long have I been chained

I’m ready Jesus—set me free
