Mapping My Final Ride To the Other Side

Mapping my final ride to the other side Oh how I want to feel like I have arrived Seeing so many good reasons why I have survived Like I have climbed the highest mountain totally revived Believing in myself knowing I will not be denied Dreaming of my God that makes me so satisfied Doing what I had to do so I didn't collide With the love waiting on the other side Only God gets to decide Who gets to go on this amazing ride Enjoying going to heaven where God resides Feeling like I belong rested very much alive Applying myself being careful not to divide My faith that makes it all so personalized With his wisdom and understanding he provides His truth in the bible makes us unified Oh how I want to make sure I realize Jesus was tried and crucified Giving up his life so we would be supplied With a way, we can be revived When Satan only promises genocide Disguised as some better kind of high That leaves us completely horrified Making Gods plan justified Mankind needs to open his eyes to unwind How much he needs to live in our minds Only God knows what happens when we die Bringing his divine harmony So when Jesus returns to rectify What Satan tried so hard to nullify Knowing that I won't be left behind Believing I didn't live my life blind To the truth that gives us passage to heaven Where my soul can reign on high Knowing or lord and master would never lie About what will happen if we except him eye to eye
