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

I'm ready to go home

I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins

I'm ready to begin

Take this river to the sea

Where the delta flows

The tide is washing over me

Take this soul to heaven's door

Show me where tomorrow lies

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
