The lamb is waitin' there Yes, I know (I know) there'll come a time When the Lord (The Lord) will draw the line You better get busy and change your ways Life's runnin' out one of these days Goodness and mercy Surely will find me a place and time We'll walk on streets that are paved with gold And a mansion shall be mine in time If you were born just yesterday You ain't got long in this world to stay So live your life and run your race Then move on to a better place Oh, I know (I know) there come a time When the Lord (the Lord) will draw the line You better get busy and change your ways Life's runnin' out one of these days Life's runnin' out one of these days One of these days
