[Verse 1]
The Jordan is waitin'
For me to cross through
My heart is aging, I can tell
So, Lord, I am begging
For one last favor from You
Here's my heart, take it where You will
[Verse 2]
This life has shown me
How we're mended and how we're torn
How it's okay to be lonely as long as you're free
And sometimes my ground was stony
Sometimes covered up with thorns
And only You could make it what it had to be
[Pre-Chorus]
And now that it's done
If they dress me like a pauper
If they dine me like a prince
If they laid me with my fathers
Or if they scatter my ashes on the wind, I don't care
[Chorus]
When I leave, I wanna go out like Elijah
With a whirlwind of fuel, my chariot of fire
And when I look back on the stars
It'll be like a candlelight in Central Park
And it won't break my heart to say goodbye
The Jordan is waitin'
For me to cross through
My heart is aging, I can tell
So, Lord, I am begging
For one last favor from You
Here's my heart, take it where You will
[Verse 2]
This life has shown me
How we're mended and how we're torn
How it's okay to be lonely as long as you're free
And sometimes my ground was stony
Sometimes covered up with thorns
And only You could make it what it had to be
[Pre-Chorus]
And now that it's done
If they dress me like a pauper
If they dine me like a prince
If they laid me with my fathers
Or if they scatter my ashes on the wind, I don't care
[Chorus]
When I leave, I wanna go out like Elijah
With a whirlwind of fuel, my chariot of fire
And when I look back on the stars
It'll be like a candlelight in Central Park
And it won't break my heart to say goodbye
