As Long as God is Buying
Stuck in a place in time
A memory of old
Looking up the steps to climb
To reach a thought untold
Oh to be that simple man
Who wears with pride his crown
To focus your eyes faster than
The world is going around
I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of losing
And I'm going to trade my trophy
When the time comes down to choosing
I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of losing
And I'm going to trade my trophy
When the time comes down to choosing
So play your cards
Step out on the edge
It's been a long train ride
But the station now
Ain't but a mile ahead
You might hide your gold, you might fold
You might hold out for your queen
Till you're just a jack by the railroad track
With the best winning hand no one's ever seen
And I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of dying
And I'm going to trade my life
As long as God is buying
And I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of dying
And I'm going to trade my life
As long as God is buying
A memory of old
Looking up the steps to climb
To reach a thought untold
Oh to be that simple man
Who wears with pride his crown
To focus your eyes faster than
The world is going around
I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of losing
And I'm going to trade my trophy
When the time comes down to choosing
I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of losing
And I'm going to trade my trophy
When the time comes down to choosing
So play your cards
Step out on the edge
It's been a long train ride
But the station now
Ain't but a mile ahead
You might hide your gold, you might fold
You might hold out for your queen
Till you're just a jack by the railroad track
With the best winning hand no one's ever seen
And I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of dying
And I'm going to trade my life
As long as God is buying
And I'm not afraid, lord
I'm not afraid of dying
And I'm going to trade my life
As long as God is buying
