Take Me Away

There's no telling when it’ll come
But I know it's comin'
And I believe it’s only a matter of time
It may be on a day like today
When we least expect it
But I can see that writing on the wall

So, I don't let the present destroy
What I see before me
'Cause all I'm seeing now
Will be gone for good
And though it's sometimes hard to bear
And I get so discouraged
That won't last forever
I keep looking for that day
When all of life is over
I'll be flying home
To be and stay with You

You are the one who will ease my sorrow
And You, You and me, face to face
And I, I know I'll be that much closer tomorrow
So, when You come, just take me
Take me away

People tell me it’s only a dream
It’ll never, never happen
But I'm so sure, I’m packing my bags today
And I want to be fully prepared
For that celebration
When past will be forgotten
And all time will disappear
And I'll be gazing at You
And amazed that I could be so near to You

You are the one who will ease my sorrow
And You, You and me, face to face
And I, I know I'll be that much closer tomorrow
So, when You come, just take me
Take me away

Take me away
Lord, just take me away
Take me away
Lord, just take me away
