Chorus:
I wanna be ready
I wanna be ready
I wanna be ready
when joy comes back to me
I’ve been downhearted
I’ve been downhearted
I’ve been downhearted
But I won’t be down for long
Chorus
I’ve been too long cryin’
Too long cryin’
Too long cryin’
I ain’t cryin’ anymore
Chorus
I felt tied to the ground, lord
Tied to the ground, lord
Tied to the ground, lord
I’m getting lighter every day
Chorus
I’ve been surrounded by midnight
Surrounded by midnight
Surrounded by midnight
The sun’s gonna warm my face
Chorus
