I can smell the death on the sheets[00:00:31]

Covering me[00:00:37]

I can't believe this is the end[00:00:40]

But this is my deathbed[00:00:52]

I lie here alone[00:00:59]

If I close my eyes tonight[00:01:04]

I know I'll be home[00:01:10]

The year was nineteen forty one[00:01:17]

I was eight years old and[00:01:21]

Far, far too young[00:01:23]

To know that the stories[00:01:26]

Of battles and glory[00:01:28]

Was a tale a kind mother[00:01:30]

Made up for her son[00:01:32]

You see[00:01:34]

Dad was a traveling preacher[00:01:34]

Teaching the words of the Teacher[00:01:38]

My mother had sworn he[00:01:42]

Went off to the war[00:01:44]

And died there with honor[00:01:46]

Somewhere on a beach there[00:01:48]

But he left once to never return[00:01:51]

Which taught me that I should unlearn[00:01:55]

Whatever I thought a father should be[00:01:58]

I abandoned that thought[00:02:03]

Like he abandoned me[00:02:05]

By forty seven I was fourteen[00:02:07]

I'd acquired a taste for liquor[00:02:10]

and nicotine[00:02:13]

I smoked until I threw up[00:02:16]

Yet I still lit 'em up[00:02:18]

For thirty more years[00:02:20]

Like a machine[00:02:23]

So right there you have it[00:02:26]

That one filthy habit[00:02:30]

Is what got me where I am today[00:02:34]

I can smell the death on the sheets[00:02:38]

Covering me[00:02:43]

I can't believe this is the end[00:02:45]

I can hear those sad memories[00:02:55]

Still haunting me[00:02:59]

So many things[00:03:01]

I'd do again[00:03:04]

But this is my deathbed[00:03:12]

I lie here alone[00:03:17]

If I close my eyes tonight[00:03:21]

I know I'll be home[00:03:25]

I got married on my twenty first[00:03:30]

Eight months before my wife[00:03:34]

would give birth[00:03:37]

It's easier to be sure[00:03:38]

you love someone[00:03:40]

When her father inquires with[00:03:42]

the barrel of a gun[00:03:44]

The union was far from harmonious[00:03:46]

No two people could have[00:03:50]

been more alone than us[00:03:52]

The years would go by[00:03:54]

and she'd love someone else[00:03:56]

And I realized I hadn't[00:03:58]

been loved yet myself[00:04:01]

From there it's your typical spiel[00:04:03]

Yeah if life was a highway[00:04:06]

I was drunk at the wheel[00:04:09]

I was seeing the loose ends[00:04:11]

All fall apart[00:04:13]

Yeah I swear I was destined to fail[00:04:15]

And fail from the start[00:04:18]

I bowled about six times a week[00:04:21]

The bottle of Beam[00:04:25]

kept the memories from me[00:04:27]

The marriage had taken a seven-ten split[00:04:30]

And along with my pride[00:04:33]

the ex-wife took the kids[00:04:35]

I can smell the death on the sheets[00:04:38]

Covering me[00:04:42]

I can't believe this is the end[00:04:44]

I can hear those sad memories[00:04:54]

Still haunting me[00:04:58]

So many things[00:05:00]

I'd do again[00:05:03]

But this is my deathbed[00:05:12]

I lie here alone[00:05:17]

If I close my eyes tonight[00:05:20]

I know I'll be home[00:05:25]

I was so scared of Jesus[00:05:29]

But He sought me out[00:05:31]

Like the cancer in my lungs[00:05:33]

That's killing me now[00:05:35]

And I've given up hope[00:05:37]

On the days I have left[00:05:39]

But I cling to the hope[00:05:41]

Of my life in the next[00:05:43]

Then Jesus showed up[00:05:45]

Said, "Before we go up[00:05:47]

I thought that we might reminisce[00:05:49]

See one night in your life[00:05:53]

When you turned out the light[00:05:55]

You asked for and prayed[00:05:58]

for my forgiveness"[00:06:01]

You cried wolf[00:06:05]

The tears they soaked your fur[00:06:07]

The blood dripped from your fangs[00:06:11]

You said, "What have I done?"[00:06:14]

You loved that Lamb[00:06:18]

With every sinful bone[00:06:21]

And there you wept alone[00:06:25]

Your heart was so contrite[00:06:29]

You said, "Jesus,[00:06:33]

please forgive me of my crimes[00:06:35]

Sanctify this withered heart of mine[00:06:41]

Stay with me until my life is through[00:06:48]

And on that day please[00:06:56]

take me home with you"[00:06:58]

I can smell the death on the sheets[00:07:04]

Covering me[00:07:09]

I can't believe this is the end[00:07:11]

I can hear You whisper to me,[00:07:21]

"It's time to leave[00:07:27]

You'll never be lonely again"[00:07:29]

But this was my deathbed[00:07:42]

I died there alone[00:07:47]

When I closed my eyes tonight[00:07:50]

You carried me home[00:07:55]

I am the Way[00:10:01]

Follow Me[00:10:05]

And take My hand[00:10:06]

And I am the Truth[00:10:10]

Embrace Me and you'll understand[00:10:15]

And I am the Light[00:10:19]

And for Me you'll live again[00:10:24]

For I am Love[00:10:29]

I am Love[00:10:34]

I, I am Love[00:10:39]

I, I am Love[00:10:39]
