Sissel - Ready to Go Home lyrics

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
Guide 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
If time has run it's course with me

I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins
I'm ready to begin

When the evening shadows fall
When the time has come, I let defenses fall
To surrender, to survive
I will give up everything to
Those who leave behind

I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to receive forgiveness for my sins
I'm ready to begin i'm ready to lay down
I'm ready now to sleep a promise I must keep
I'm ready to go home again going home again
