A lot of David MacGregor‘s songs are suitable for young people, and this Christmas / Advent song is another.
My backing tries for the country rock feel he suggests. It is call and response so easy to learn.
Get ready, get ready,
Get ready for Christmas (echo)
Get ready, get ready,
‘cos Jesus comes (echo)
Jesus – he comes to us
As a baby (echo)
Jesus – he comes to show
God’s love (echo)
- Time to get together
To live God’s kind of way
To walk in step with Jesus
In all we do and say … Get ready …- Time for sayin’ “sorry”
To put the past behind
As forgiven friends with Jesus:
Be more loving, be more kind …
Get ready …CODA: Jesus – we want to show your love!

This is another of his older songs that I had trouble downloading from his website, so I converted it to a pdf.
