Dad’s been working quite late
Which hasn’t been very great
He said tonight when he got home
He wouldn’t leave you all alone
Get out that ball and glove
Be ready for that game of catch you love
Chorus
Be at the ready
Though you don’t know when he’ll come
Be at the ready
Cuz his arrival will bring fun
You don’t know when his work is done
But trust his word that he will come
So put the glove beside the door
With the ball there on the floor
So that ball and glove
Are ready for that game of catch you love
Chorus
Jesus promised he’d come back
Though the timing we do lack
Trust the words that have been told
In the scriptures oh so old
Just like with the ball and glove
Be ready for his coming with love
Chorus
