Give Up the Ghost

Gonna give up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Because it don’t belong to me

Gonna give up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Give up the ghost
I’m] gonna give it up
Because it don’t belong to me

And I know
I know
I know
I know I don’t have to fear eternity

No, I don’t!

Because I know
I know
I know
I know exactly where my poor soul’s going

Yes, I do!

And it’s time
Thank God it’s time for me to go
To go and meet the Lord

Gonna give up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Because it don’t belong to me

To be absent from the body
Is to be present with the Lord
And I’m ready to give up
And to receive my just reward

And I know I need not fear
For those I leave behind
Because I’m strong in my faith
And I trust in Gods design

Gonna give up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Give up the ghost
I’m gonna give it up
Because it don’t belong to me

I’m gonna give it up
Because it don’t belong to me

It don’t belong to me
