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
