Rap 1:
There used to be a time when we were fine living life with no particular religious bend.
Pretending to be our own Gods defending our own systems of beliefs so as to not depend
On anything other than our own self governing consent
Defending an impending doom with no perceived need to concede to repent.
Assuming our innocence in a sense to send the state of death only the inevitable end of everything we could never rightly understand or comprehend.
We used to fear the unknown until God made Himself known in its own mending the relationship between God and man.
Giving His life as a ransom for many when He died and ascended. And in that one event the certainty of eternal death was circumvented,
Making a way for the day when history stops and time suspends, sending eternity and fellowship that never ends.
We see the greatest expression of God's love extended in that moment when those who were once enemies instead became God's friends
And when it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home I know I'll be with You, I know I'll be with You
When it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home
Nowhere that I'd rather go I wanna be with you
Rap 2:
How sweet the gospel sounds to ears like mine, well acquainted with pain and strained relationships.
Friendships that suffer from long distances or even worse they get severed from something more severe.
And He still hasn't wiped away all of my tears yet; my cheeks get wet every now and then even when i give my best.
I know I fall short, I get scared when the balls in my court,
Focused on my performance wretched and poor makes the message more real when i preach it.
I'm not there yet so I'm reachin', reachin' for the gold to stand before my king and be speechless, then,
Never again will i question if this grace is sufficient to cover my sin cuz death is gone and all the effects of the evil and wrong will be conquered when His kingdom comes.
So this is my hope and my prayer the air that i breathe and eternity with lungs that never fail me.
If it pleases my Lord and only by Your grace use my life til' its poured out for Your sake.
Until then I'll remain where you have me with joy when I feel unhappy.
And a peace that surpasses all my understanding.
My life is in the hands of Your love everlasting.
And when it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home I know I'll be with You, I know I'll be with You
When it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home
Nowhere that I'd rather go I wanna be with you
And when it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home I know I'll be with You, I know I'll be with You
When it is my time to go, go ahead and take me home
Nowhere that I'd rather go I wanna be with you
