"Just you wait," he said to me. "All of this in God's good time." And so we stood, side by side, waiting on God and God's good time We could be falling apart I feel the seams unraveling And if our thread is torn asunder I will not fear the lightning and I will not curse your thunder. "I might have faith," she said to me. "So stand right there just a bit closer." Our fingers brush as a reminder; it's always nice we're not alone. Resigned but grateful, I remain for the brief hints of grace I see. We welcome death in spite of suffering for you alone are larger than the grave.

I made up my mind, tomorrow we're going to die Jesus hear my prayer, don't leave me alone tonight. Wring my neck with piano wire Kill the family, set the house on fire. Abraham come and set us free rod in hand, serpent under feet So I made up my mind, tomorrow we're going to die Jesus hear my prayer, don't leave me alone tonight. Sick with fear and lack of sleep panic attacks, another losing streak Open up the ground up swallow me hole I used to worry, but now it comforts my soul. And I made up my mind, tomorrow we're going to die Jesus hear my prayer, don't leave me alone tonight. I used to lie in bed for hours waiting for your judgment to come A life of death? World without end? What a monster I've become. I've made up my mind, tomorrow we're going to die Jesus hear my prayer, don't leave me alone tonight. Jesus hear my prayer don't leave me alone tonight.
