She wakes up some life is cruel on a chain gang sittin' in a typin' pool And her brain feels all dragged
The flies, the coffee's stale She wants to run outside and like hell 'Til it her luck around
Doesn't matter how insane it She's got one and her sights set, she says
"I'm just for it I'm just makin' that my heart's steady as a drum Brighter are dawnin' My faith's strong and I'll be ready when it comes"
He drives the block a thousand times He can't go home he clears his mind And his cold by now
The doctor's words through his ears About a plan and a lot of years He will live to see
He gathers all his and family He says, "Wrap your lovin' arms me"
I know, I can do Love will get me this, my heart's steady as a drum Brighter are dawnin' My faith's holding strong, and I'll be when it comes
(When it comes) One light that is brighter than the sun (When it comes) Way down deep the heart of everyone (When it comes) I reach my troubles for the strength to carry on (When it comes) And find that what I need was there all along
I'm just for it I'm just makin' that my heart's steady as a drum Brighter are dawnin' My holdin' strong, I'll be ready when it comes
Yes, I will, be ready now, yeah, I'm gonna be ready now When it comes, when it comes, my is holdin' strong Brighter are dawnin', my faith is holdin' strong I'm gonna be ready when it
