Death Row Conversation Songtext / Lyric

A moment of your time now

As mine is closing in on me

A simple farewell rhyme to

Anyone who hears me



I have walked in shadows

I have walked in blindness

My life now lies behind me

I have only one tomorrow



My name is Jake

I have made more than one mistake

Where I lost all sense of good reason

Now my time has come

There's nowhere I can run

Oh Lord, please give me courage



The Sister she's my saviour

She's my one and only friend

I know I do so love her

She says that she will miss me






Tomorrow they will burn me

They say that it will cause no pain

But what greatly concerns me

Is who of them would really know



Thy Kingdom come

Thy will be done

On Earth as it is in Heaven

With one more setting sun

And dinner just for one

Oh Lord, please give me courage



And as the night grows darker

My fear it now surrounds me

I wish I could be stronger

Oh Sister can you hear me



Take this wretched soul

Try to make it whole

It's true I have been a sinner

I know I've done wrong

And all I have is this song

Oh Lord, please give me courage



Thy Kingdom come

Thy will be done

On Earth as it is in Heaven

Now my time has come

There's nowhere I can run

Oh Lord, please give me courage
