[Eb] Let's stand down here.
I'm going to leave you now.
[Ebm] We ask your prayer.
[Eb] We know that prayer will change things.
Oh yes.
[Ebm] It's dangerous on the [Eb] highway.
[Ab] But know, you that know the word [Eb] of prayer,
on your violin here,
[Db] say [Eb] a word
for the state we're singing.
If you miss me from singing down here,
don't worry about it.
I got a home on high.
Yeah.
Because Jesus said I'm going where you're leaving.
He said if I go,
I'll come again and receive you unto myself.
Yeah.
And there where I am,
he may be also.
Oh Lord.
We got a better home too.
Yeah.
And in that land over there,
I have friends and loved ones
that's already gone.
I have a mother
and I have a father
that's already gone.
They're waiting
and waiting for me.
I don't know what the Lord is going to call me.
Oh yes.
But there's one thing I do know.
Just a few more rides.
A few more rides.
Oh Lord.
Oh yes.
A few [Ab] more rides and save a [Ebm] little some.
Yeah.
And what's going to be done down there.
[Eb] Oh Lord.
I want all you on your way tonight.
And listen.
Early if you meet me there.
Don't worry about it.
Don't have to worry.
Oh Lord.
I don't know what to do here.
Oh Lord.
And then you look around and see me sit around.
Where?
You meet me.
Oh Lord.
And one more thing I'd like you to do.
And this is what it is children.
Yeah.
And [Ab] you [Eb] tell him me.
Wow.
[F]
I'm coming.
[B] [Eb] Hold on.
You [B] tell [Eb] my heaven.
[Gb] My heavenly [Eb]
king.

to [Eb] bear.
