Well I know that there will be a day
The Lord will have me fly away
Write with chisel when I'm gone
Return to sender on my stone

In time the body will succumb
Call the faithful servant home
Write with chisel when I'm gone
Return to sender on my stone
Return to sender on my stone

Though my name is written in his hand
Be spoke there in the Promise Land
Write with chisel when I'm gone
Return to sender on my stone

And I wanna hear a job well done
I wanna hear it from the Son
Write with chisel when I'm gone
Return to sender on my stone
Return to sender on my stone
