“Lord I’m coming”, “Lord I’m running”
Skipping steps all the way to your gate.
I know I faltered, but through faith I’ve altered
Escaping the bondage of hate.

Fame, wealth, prestige, and wild women
For too long were my passions of life.
One day I found sweet liberation
When you gave my heart to my wife.

33 years we loved one another
Sharing all we possessed and more.
Last year she passed in the middle of night
Never to shadow our door.

I’m sure in rapture, she awaits
For me to arrive in heaven divine.
I’ll miss our children, and grandkids to
But we’ll all reunite in time.
