Clear - Ready To Ride
from the album "Clear"
Sixth street sun is going down
Pavement's cool underneath
A vagrant so they say in town
Seems that mercy can't compete
Sleeping in a doorway
Near the docks of Oyster Bay
Thirteen years and carryinng shame
Never hearing the voice of the One who took his blame
A whisper
He raised his head
Surrender out do you believe
Are you ready to ride the train
Abandoned not by love you'll see
If you're ready to ride
A one-piece paper suitcase
A past whose future was foretold
A life not made for dying
Instead the mystery began to unfold
Unfolding
He raised his head
Surrender out do you believe
Are you ready to ride the train
Abandoned not by love you'll see
If you're ready to ride
Born into despair an orphan child
Will You care for me
And like the train that saved me
Adopted in by love eternally
Opening His arms He wantes you rich you poor you black you white
Recieve His love that runs so deep and high and long and wide
Surrender out do you believe
Are you ready to ride the train
Abandoned not by love you'll see
If you're ready to ride
Surrender out do you believe
Are you ready to ride the train
Abandoned not by love you'll see
If you're ready to ride
