Not Yet

I admit that I’m unprepared
Staring into the face of death
And with my hand across my chest
I swear that I’m not ready for the test
Not yet
I’m not ready yet
I fear I’ve missed a chance, I’ve lived a fearful life
I said I wanted to die, I called to you at night
I cried to you, but it was in greed
When I was alone, when I was in need
Not yet
You’ll not have me yet
I’ve found a love, I’ve found a home
No longer lost, no longer alone
I promise now, I won’t call for you
Embrace the life that I owe to you
Not yet
I’m not ready yet
In the final hour, all will be said and done
And all I know is that the hour will come
