The Oak Ridge Boys - Lord, I've Been Ready For Years lyrics

It could be that time will bring in me a change When really and truly I stand Viewing the waters so dark and so strange That stretch to that promised land It could be that I will leave crying in vain As always succumbing to fears But gladly today I would give up the strain 'Cause Lord I've been ready for years Lord I've been ready been ready for years I've stumbled through darkness and struggled through tears Lord I've been ready for years Narrow's the way that I know I must tread Though I've often strayed from the road A little ashamed of the life that I've lead A little bit stooped from the load Lord I'm not complaining, just thinking out loud I'm thankful more than it appears But if You should call me some day I'd be proud 'Cause Lord I've been ready for years
