Then, when my time comes to die, I don’t want anyone to mourn,
from you I only ask to bring my body home!
So good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Well, good, good, good,
so good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Jesus will make it right, Jesus will lay it out for me,
Jesus will prepare my bed of death.
Well then, Jesus, come and meet me, meet me
somewhere suspended in midair
if these arms will leave me in the mud!
Oh Lord, won’t You wait with another pair of arms?
So good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Well, good, good, good,
so good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Jesus will make it right, Jesus will lay it out for me,
Jesus will prepare my bed of death.
Oh Lord, when my time comes I don’t want anyone to weep for me!
Only when I die do I want you to take me!
So good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Well, good, good, good.
So good, good, good, good, just to close my eyes in peace.
Jesus will make it right, Jesus will lay it out for me,
Jesus will prepare my bed of death.
