"YOUR TIME TO GO"

Verse 1
Watch the gentle falling leaves tumbling on a winter’s eve.
Soon their brown will turn to gray, lay resting on the ground beneath,
Like a gentle passing breeze, the breath of life so softly comes.
But something that you just don’t know is when will come your time to go.

Chorus 1
Your time to go no one knows,
If you’ll see rainbows, or blankets of snow,
Will the sun rays shine when it comes your time.
The good Lord knows when it’s your time to go.
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye pain,
Bright shines tomorrow when we rise again.

Verse 2
Walking down the winding road, thinking about the things I’ve done,
Leaving all the ones I’ve known, wondering about the seeds I’ve sown.
The clouds are gathering to receive the rain that’s fallen must return.
We, like falling raindrops, go rising from the earth below.

Repeat Chorus 1

---- two times

Chorus 2
Your time to go no one knows,
If you’ll see rainbows, or blankets of snow,
Will the sun rays shine when it comes your time.
The good Lord knows when it’s your time to go.
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye pain,
Bright shines tomorrow when we rise again.-
