Lyrics: Brian McKnight. Anytime. When The Chariot Comes.

All of these flowers
For this friend of ours, it's such a shame
All of these people
All of them equally feel the same

There's silence and weeping
Looks like he's sleeping, the children say
They say he was ready
"I hope he was ready" is the prayer I'm praying

When Gabriel begins to blow
Victory shall be mine
When the horses get ready to go
Angels won't leave me behind

I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes
I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes

Over the prairie the pallbearers carry
And lay him to rest
Satan's a cheater, Christ is the teacher
And life's the test

Oh Lord, take me higher
Never liked fire, I can't stay here
I gotta get ready, gotta get ready
Time has drawn near

When Gabriel begins to blow
Victory shall be mine
And when the horses get ready to go
The Angels won't leave me behind

I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes
Said I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray my soul you keep
If I die before I wake
I pray my soul you'll take

'Cause I gotta be, gotta be ready
When Jesus comes
When that chariot comes

I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes
Said I'm gonna be, got to be ready
When the chariot comes

When the chariot comes
When the chariot comes
When the chariot comes
...
