I'm gonna ride the chariot in the morning, Lord,
I'm gettin' ready for the judgement day, my Lord.
Are you ready my friend?
Oh, yes.
Are you ready for the journey?
Oh, yes.
Do you want to see your Jesus?
Oh, yes. I'm waitin' for the chariot 'cause I'm ready to go.
I'm gonna ride the chariot in the morning, Lord,
I'm gettin' ready for the judgement day, my Lord.
Are you ready my family?
Oh, yes.
Are you ready for the journey?
Oh, yes.
Do you want to see your Jesus?
Oh, yes. I'm waitin' for the chariot 'cause I'm ready to go.
I'm gonna ride the chariot in the morning, Lord,
I'm gettin' ready for the judgement day, my Lord.
I never can forget that day,
Ride in the chariot to see my Lord.
When all my sins were taken away,
Ride in the chariot to see my Lord.
My feet were snatched from the miry clay,
Ride in the chariot to see my Lord.
I'll serve my Lord till judgement day,
Ride in the chariot to see my Lord.
I'm gonna ride the chariot in the morning, Lord.
I'm gettin' ready for the judgement day.
I'm gonna ride in the chariot to see my Lord.
