Gospel Lyrics >> Song Title :: By Surprise
Gospel Lyrics >> Song Artist :: Joy Williams
Words and Music by Jesse Butterworth and Joy Williams
I've got a secret to tell
A midnight confession
I love the life that I lead
But it's no obsession
Because I'm waiting, anticipating
Watching for Your return
You'll come and get me
You know I'm ready
Enjoyed my stay, but You'll steal me away
CHORUS
Like a thief in the night
Like a runaway train
Like a first class, lightning fast hurricane
I'll keep my ear to the ground
And my eyes to the sky
I'm ready now but somehow
I know You'll take me by surprise
So I'll keep spreading the word
To everybody
Until the masses have heard
About that party
Because I'm waiting, anticipating
Watching for Your return
You'll come and get me
You know I'm ready
Enjoyed my stay, but You'll steal me away
CHORUS
Cause I R.S.V.P.'d on the invitation
I sent it care of the blood
That saved me the spot
With the One who will come
CHORUS
