Tomorrow I'll officially be "old"
But I'm not deformed or decrepit
I'd rather be hot or cold
Than lukewarm or tepid

I'd rather go out with a bang
Than slowly fade away
Like songs I never sang
Forgotten in the fray

In Your kingdom
There's no such thing as age
There's peace n freedom
When we leave this feeble cage

Forgive me for being, sad and blue
I've kicked myself til I'm, black and blue
Didn't mean to, act it out on you
You're the one I hitched my wagon to

Growin' old doesn't have to be sad
At least I ain't six feet underground
Everything about agin' ain't bad
Sometimes I even get a discount

I need to look on the bright side
At least I ain't six feet under
I'm just glad that Christ died
For my bad deeds n blunders

I need to look at growing old
From a new n fresh perspective
At least my faith ain't growin' cold
And I'm not alone and neglected

In Your kingdom
There's no such thing as age
There's peace n freedom
When we leave this feeble cage

Forgive me for being, sad and blue
I've kicked myself til I'm, black and blue
Didn't mean to, act it out on you
You're the one I hitched my wagon to

In Your kingdom
There's no such thing as age
There's peace n freedom
When we leave this feeble cage

Forgive me for being, sad and blue
I've kicked myself til I'm, black and blue
Didn't mean to, act it out on you
You're the one I hitched, my wagon to
