Elijah lyrics

Artist  : Gary Chapman 
Song : Elijah



 Send "Elijah" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   Elijah



The Jordan is waiting for me to cross through

My heart is aging I can tell 

So Lord, I'm begging for one last favor from You


Here's my heart take it where You will 



This life has shown me how we're mended and how
we're torn 

How it's okay to be lonely as long as you're free


Sometimes my ground was stony

And sometimes covered up with thorns 

And only You could make it what it had to be 

And now that it's done 

Well if they dressed me like a pauper 

Or if they dined me like a prince 

If they lay me with my fathers 

Or if my ashes scatter on the wind 

I don't care 



But when I leave I want to go out like Elijah 

With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire 

And when I look back on the stars 

It'll be like a candlelight in Central Park 

And it won't break my heart to say goodbye 



There's people been friendly, but they'd never be
your friends 

Sometimes this has bent me to the ground 

Now that this is all ending 

I want to hear some music once again 

'Cause it's the finest thing that I have ever
found 



But the Jordan is waiting 

Though I ain't never seen the other side 

Still they say you can't take in the things you
have here 

So on the road to salvation 

I stick out my thumb and He gives me a ride 

And His music is already falling on my ears 



There's people been talking 

They say they're worried about my soul 

Well, I'm here to tell you I'll keep rocking 

'Til I'm sure it's my time to roll 

And when I do 



When I leave I want to go out like Elijah 

With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire 

And when I look back on the stars 

It'll be like a candlelight in Central Park 

And it won't break my heart to say goodbye 



'Cause when I leave I want to go out like Elijah


With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire 

And when I look back on the stars 

It'll be like a candlelight in Central Park 

And it won't break my heart to say goodbye
