Lord knows I've made mistakes

Not of which I'm proud but I got down on my knees

And begged him please to hear me somehow

Forgive me of my sins and show me the light

Let me follow in the truth, dedicate my life to you

So in the end I'll be alright


So when it's my time to go, I've done all that I can

I'll have a smile on my face as I join the angel band

So please, don't cry cause in my heart I'll know

I've got Jesus on my side so my soul will be alright

When it comes my time to go


There's no easy way around, it's a climb up to the top

But if we keep the faith, live for you each day

Believe with all I've got

Stay humble as a child

Then when this old life is through

I won't be alone, Christ will take me home

Like he promised he would do


So when it comes my time to go and I've done all that I can

I'll have a smile on my face as I join the angel band

So please, don't cry cause in my heart I'll know

I've got Jesus on my side so my soul will be alright

When it comes my time to go


I've got Jesus on my side so my soul will be alright

When it comes my time to go
