Intro: Yes, I’m ready for the game / And when I do my thing, it’s in Jesus’ name! / But I don’t compete with power of my own / Christ gave it to me when I made Him Lord of my throne / Change my tone? Nope, that won’t happen / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / That means “I’m Game Ready” when the hands start clappin’ . . . Oh!!!
Hook: You don’t really want none of this! / We’re goin’ represent the Kingdom while we pump our fist / And yell Game Ready, Game Ready, Game Ready, Game Ready! / You don’t really want none of this! / I’m goin’ represent the Kingdom while I pump my fist / ‘Cause I’m Game Ready, Game Ready, Game Ready, Game Ready!
V1 – I’m ready for the game / ‘Cause I ran into the strong tower of the Lord’s name / And things haven’t been the same / Ever since I came into the knowledge of the truth / The devil is defeated and the Bible is the proof / But some of y’all be givin’ him too much credit / If the enemy wins, it’s because you let it / Christ paid the price and don’t you forget it / And that’s the reason we will be eternally indebted / Put on all the full armor, that’s what Paul told us / ‘Cause faith without works ain’t enough to hold us / And the devil? He’s a liar / he can’t take you higher / Why do you think he’s goin’ end up in that lake of fire? / Change my tone? Nope, that won’t happen / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / That means “I’m Game Ready” when the hands start clappin’ . . . Oh!!!

V2 – Yeah, I’m ready for the game but before I do my thing / I commit a little time to pray & call on the name / Of the one True & Living God, Never-ending, giving God / I’m talkin’ about the Saviour y’all, Jesus, He is God! / And yep, you heard me, I said Jesus / The only one with the power to free us / From eternal separation caused by sin / I’m ready for this game ‘cause in Christ, I Win! / So know your enemy and get game ready / Butterflies in your tummy and your hands all sweaty / Listen, satan is our true opposition / Ephesians 6:11 is how you stop his mission / Change my tone? Nope, that won’t happen / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / That means “I’m Game Ready” when the hands start clappin’ . . . Oh!!!
Hook x 2
Spoken Word: Every time satan sees a God-glorifying Christian, he’s reminded that he’s not God and that he has been defeated by the power of the cross. So don’t be ignorant to his tricks: deceit, temptation, lust for power, division, arrogance. All of these things play right into his hands. But if you’re “Game Ready”, c’mon and say this with me:
Outro x 2: Change my tone? Nope, that won’t happen / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / You’d better get ready when the hands start clappin’ / That means “I’m Game Ready” when the hands start clappin’
