Ready to Meet Him

Let us, let us pray

I thank you Lord for my birth, and everything that's followed

I thank you Lord for today, and I will pray for tomorrow

I thank you Lord for the love of my life and a friend

I made a promise and I'm lovin' my wife till the endI thank you Lord for your guidance, 'cause it's all that counts

And right here, right now? Lord, this is your house

I thank you Lord for a dream that came true to light

And I ask you to bless everybody, in this room tonightI don't always do the right thing, and I ask you to forgive me

'Cause I need you here wit me, without you in my life, it's empty

I think back how some people did me like, violence was the remedy

And because I think of that now, I pray for my enemyNot because of what I'll do, but because they don't know

There's somethin' better after here, and everybody, won't go

So I ask you to forgive them, and we'll hope they see

And I thank you for the love that, they've given to meI will not abuse it, nor will I lead them astray

You see I love 'em like children, that I see everyday

And I pray, no, we pray, together

To get us through the bad weather, and we love you foreverLet your thought and my heart, go hand in hand

I first thought, but to start, but I stand a man

And for as long as I can, as long as you permit me

Please give me, the strength I need to live

Bear with me, amenWe each walk the path, that you've chosen

YesI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordLord, 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 yearsSnakes still comin' at me, just missin'

Sometimes I think all you do with me is just listen

I thought that I was special, that's what you told me

Homey, stop actin' like you don't know meWhat'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 is you who went away and now are back againWhat 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 chanceI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordJust because you went away, my doors are not locked

Wanna come back home? All you gotta do is knock

You see I left home a boy, but returned as a man

Full grown, and I'm still not able to standI gave you a hand, well, but I was lookin' the wrong way

Figured out the plan, then I started to pray

And that prayer, took me from here over there

Back to over here, now it got me likeWhere 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 shalt not steal, but what if he stole from me?

Thou shalt not kill, but what if he's tryin' to kill me?

Thou shalt not take my name in vain

No matter how hard it rains, withstand the painI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordI'm ready to meet him, our father, who art in Heaven

I'm not ashamed to ask for guidance at twenty seven

No longer afraid to knock on your door

Not scared anymore to lose my life in the warAfter 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 beWhat 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 seeWhat 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 musta been a fool to ever doubt youI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordI'm ready to meet him 'cause where I'm livin' ain't right

Black hate white, white hate black, it's right back to the same fight

They got us suspectin' a war

But the real war is to follow the law of the LordI'm ready to meet him

I'm ready to meet him

I'm ready to meet him

I'm ready to meet him

I'm ready to meet him
