Well, Jesus will be here
Be here soon
he’s gonna cover us up with leaves
With a blanket from the moon
With a promise and a vow
And a lullaby for my brow
Jesus gonna be here
Be here soon

Well I’m just gonna wait here
I don’t have to shout
I have no reason and
I have no doubt
I’m gonna get myself
Unfurled from this mortal coiled up world
Because Jesus gonna be here
Be here soon

I got to keep my eyes open
So I can see my Lord
I’m gonna watch the horizon
For a brand new Ford

I can hear him rolling on down the lane
I said Hollywood be thy name
Jesus gonna be
Gonna be here soon

Well I’ve been faithful
And I’ve been so good
Except for drinking
But he new that I would
I’m gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found it was
And Jesus gonna be here
Be here soon
