4him – When It's Time To Go lyrics

Nothing new in this old town
The  sun comes up and heads back down
Working  hard from dawn to dusk again
Seventeen and a heart for change
The byways calling out His name
But  not yet, there's too much going on
'Cause  daddy needs a hand
And mama's tender heart
Might  crumble to the ground
Though they'd understand He felt like saying

When it's time to go
You've got to let Me go away
And  face the world
Say goodbye, cry some tears, don't worry
When I hit the city
I'll build you a house
Right down the street from Mine
Have some faith in Me
And I'll show you why

Some years later late one night
He came in trying to dry His eyes
He realized what he was born to do
He said, "I'll always be your son
And I know you know what's going on
It's the hardest thing to think of leaving you"
But this world needs a hand
And I've got just the thing they need
To make it through
It's so clear to me
Though I know what's coming

When it's time to go
You've got to let Me go away
And face the world
Say goodbye, cry some tears, don't worry
When I hit the city
I'll build you a house
Right down the street from Mine
Have some faith in Me
And I'll show you why

And as they tore His flesh like animals
There were those I know who felt Him say...

When it's time to go
You've got to let Me go away
And save the world
Say goodbye, cry some tears, don't worry
When I hit the city
I'll build you a house
Right down the street from Mine
Oh, have some faith in Me
And I'll show you why

When it's time to go
You've got to let Me go away
And save the world
Oh, say goodbye, cry some tears, don't worry
When I hit the city
I'll build you a house
Right down the street from Mine
Have some faith in Me
And I'll show you why

When it's time to go
You've got to let Me go away
And save the world
Say goodbye, cry some tears, don't worry
When I hit the city
I'll build you a house
Right down the street from Mine
Oh, have some faith in Me
And I'll show you why
