Please give me the strength I need to live... 
Bear with me 
Amen 
We each walk the path  that we've chosen 

[Chorus] 
I'm ready to meet him  
We're I'm living ain't right 
Black hate white 
White hate black 
It's right back 
To the same fight 
They got us suspecting a war 
But the real war is to follow the law of the lord 

Lord  you left me stranded 
And I don't know why 
Told me to live my life, 
Now I'm ready to die 

Ready to fly 
I cry, but I shed no tears 
You told me you would dead those fears, it's been years 
Snakes still coming at me 

Just missing 
Sometimes I think all you doing me is just listen 
I thought that I was special 
That's what you told me 

Hold me 
Stop acting like you don't know me 
What'd I do so bad that it sent you away from me 
Not only sent you away, but made you stay away from me 

(My child I'm here, as I've always been, it was you who went away, 
And now are back again, what did I say?) 
Follow your word, and be true 
(What did you do?) 

Well what I wanted to do... 
(What have you seen?) 
Darkness and hell at a glance 
(What do you want?) 
All I want is another chance 

[Chorus] 

(Just because you went away, my doors are not locked, 
want to come back home, all you gotta do is knock) 

Ya see, I left home a boy, I returned as a man 
Full grown, and I'm still not able to stand 
(I gave you a hand) 
Well... but I was looking the wrong way 

Figured out the plan, then I started to pray 
And that prayer, took me from here to over there 
Back to over here, 
Now they got me like where? 

Do I belong? 
Do I fit in? 
Things on my mind, where do I begin? 
It's easier to sin, but it hurts my heart 

I'm really tryin' to win, so where do we start? 
(Thou shall not steal) 
But, what if he stole from me? 
(Thou shall not kill) 

But what if he's tryin' to kill me? 
(Thou shall not, take my, name in vain, no matter how hard it rains, withstand the pain) 

[Chorus] 

Our father, who art in heaven 
I'm not ashamed to ask for guidance, at 27 
No longer afraid to knock on your door 
Not scared anymore to lose my life in the war 

After what I just saw, I'm ridin' with the lord 
'Cause I really can't afford to lose my head by the sword 
And now that I've seen, what I need to see 
Please take me, where I need to be 

(What have you learned?) 
It's better to tell the truth than to lie 
(What have you learned?) 
To love my life until I die 

(What have you learned?) 
Violence isn't always the key 
(What have you learned?) 
You can't always believe what you see 

(What have you learned?) 
It's better to forgive and forget 
(What have you learned?) 
Give as you expect to get 

(What have you learned?) 
That I can't go on without you 
(What have you learned?) 
I must of been a fool to ever doubt you 

[Chorus] 

I'm ready to meet him
