BRIAN MCKNIGHT - When The Chariot Comes lyrics

rate me

Oh de oh, giddyup

All of these flowers

For this friend of ours, it's such a shame

All of these people

All of them equally feel the same

There's silence and weeping

Looks like he's sleeping, the children say

They say he was ready, I hope he was ready

Is the prayer I'm praying

When Gabriel begins to blow

Victory shall be mine

When the horses get ready to go

The angels won't leave me behind

Chorus:

I'm gonna be, got to be ready

When the chariot comes

(When the chariot, when the chariot comes)

Said I'm gonna be got to be ready

When the chariot comes

(Giddyup)

Over the prairie

The pall bearers carry & lay him to rest

Satan's a cheater, Christ is the teacher

And life's the test

Oh Lord take me higher

Never liked fire, I can't stay here

I gotta get ready, gotta get ready

Time has drawn near

When Gabriel begins to blows

Victory shall be mine

When the horses get ready to go

The angels won't leave me behind

Chorus

As I lay me down to sleep

I pray my soul you keep

If I die before I wake

I pray my soul you take

Cause I gotta be ready, when Jesus comes

When the chariot comes

Gonna be, got to be ready when the chariot comes

Said I'm gonna be, got to be ready when the chariot comes

Fade out:

Got to be ready, when the chariot comes
