LYRICS

[“Prayer II”]

 

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 ’til the end

I 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 tonight

I 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 enemy

Not because of what I’ll do, but because they don’t know

There’s somethin’ better after here, but 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 me

I 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

Get us through the bad weather, and we love You forever

Let 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

Amen

 

[“Ready To Meet Him”]

 

We each walk the path that we’ve chosen (Yes)

 

I’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 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 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

Hold me, stop actin’ like You don’t know me

What 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 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

 

I’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 Lord

I’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 Lord

 

“Just 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 stand

“I 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 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 tryna 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 pain”

 

I’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 Lord

I’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 Lord

I’m ready to meet him

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’ve been a fool to ever doubt You

 

I’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 Lord

I’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 Lord

I’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
