Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seen a lot of trouble at my door
I've never known a day when I ain't been poor
But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end

Hard times is all I see
I've lost the ones that are dear to me
But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end

These poor bones are tired and old
Meet my savior, redeem my soul
Cause I'm gonna live with Jesus




I'm gonna live with Jesus
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
