To Say Goodbye, To Be Forgiven Lyrics


Yonder Mountain String Band To Say Goodbye, To Be Forgiven

[Verse 1]
Are you one foot in the grave, or one step closer to your Savior?
Brother, tell me how it feels, it's much too soon to meet your maker
You ain't ever walked the line, boy, you've always been a rebel
Ain't no time to strike a deal, not for someone who cheat the devil

[Verse 2]
Won't get a nickel for your name, course you won't need it where you're goin'
Brother, tell me, can you feel the winds of change have started blowin'?
It ain't a hot and dusty road, it's not a highway, it's a journey
Sure, you're walkin' for the train, but it's the train that's bound for glory
[Verse 3]
Every man is born to die, there ain't no mystery to livin'
But tell me brother, is it hard now to say goodbye, to be forgiven?
'Cause you won't ever get it back, can't you hear the angels callin'?
Brother, listen to them now, now that the tears have started fallin'

[Outro]
When He reaches out His hand for you, and you kneel before your Savior
Say, your brothers know you're gone, gone to Heaven a believer
Say, your brothers know you're gone, gone to Heaven a believer
