I'm Gettin' Ready for God--Lyrics

INTRO
One night Susan had
the strangest dream.

Spirit tells me so.
VERSE

I'm gettin' ready for God.
The banner of peace is what I wield.
I'm gettin' ready for God.
Like a willow in the wind I yield.
I'm gettin' ready for God.
And I know where to go.
Spirit tells me so.
Yes I know where to go.
Spirit tells me so.
BRIDGE
The greatest gift that we can give
Is that love that starts from within.

Each step I take is on safer ground. I'm gettin' ready for God.
And I know where to go.
Spirit tells me so.
Yes I know where to go.
Spirit tells me so.
Yes I know where to go.
Spirit tells me so.
Yes I know where to go.
Spirit tells......
