Lyrics

[Verse 1] On the street below these walls Where I used to walk Now I can barely crawl All this darkness rising tall Lord, shine a light for me I'm waiting to be called [Chorus] I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin [Verse 2] Take this river to the sea Where the delta flows The tide is washing over me Guide this soul to heaven's door Show me where tomorrow lies [Chorus] I'm waiting to be born I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise I must keep I'm ready to go home So tired, I lay down with these memories I breathe shallow deep inside of me If time has run its course with me [Chorus] I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin When the evening shadows fall When the time has come, I let defenses fall To surrender, to survive I will give up everything to those who leave behind [Chorus] I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise I must keep I'm ready to go home again Going home again
