Thief
I am a thief, I am a murderer
Walkin' up this lonely hill
What have I done?
No, I don't remember
And no one knows just how I feel
And I know that my time is comin' soon
It's been so long, oh, such a long time
Since I've lived with peace and rest
And now I am here at my destination
And I guess things work for the best
And I know that my time is comin' soon
O who is this man, O this man beside me
That they call the King of the Jews?
No, they don't believe that He's the Messiah
But somehow, I know that it's true
O they laugh at Him in mockery
And beat Him 'til He bleeds
O they nail Him to the rugged cross
And raise Him, yeah, they raise Him up next to me
My time has come, I'm slowly fading
But I deserve what I receive
Jesus when You reign Your kingdom
Could Ya please, please remember me?
O He looks at me still holdin' on
And the tears fall from His eyes
And He says, "I tell the truth
O today, O you will live with me in Paradise!"
Oh, yeah, yes
And I know that my time, O my time is comin' soon
Oh, yeah, yes
And I know that my time, O my time is comin' soon
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I know Paradise, O Paradise
Is comin' soon
Walkin' up this lonely hill
What have I done?
No, I don't remember
And no one knows just how I feel
And I know that my time is comin' soon
It's been so long, oh, such a long time
Since I've lived with peace and rest
And now I am here at my destination
And I guess things work for the best
And I know that my time is comin' soon
O who is this man, O this man beside me
That they call the King of the Jews?
No, they don't believe that He's the Messiah
But somehow, I know that it's true
O they laugh at Him in mockery
And beat Him 'til He bleeds
O they nail Him to the rugged cross
And raise Him, yeah, they raise Him up next to me
My time has come, I'm slowly fading
But I deserve what I receive
Jesus when You reign Your kingdom
Could Ya please, please remember me?
O He looks at me still holdin' on
And the tears fall from His eyes
And He says, "I tell the truth
O today, O you will live with me in Paradise!"
Oh, yeah, yes
And I know that my time, O my time is comin' soon
Oh, yeah, yes
And I know that my time, O my time is comin' soon
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I know Paradise, O Paradise
Is comin' soon
