I'm a Gettin' Ready to Go

Loretta Lynn · Who Says God Is Dead! [1968]

I get down on my knees

Everyday and I pray

These tears I'm a cryin' are tears of joy

'Cause it wash my sins away.



I'm a livin' for the Lord

And I want everybody to know

This old world's just my dressin' room

And I'm a gettin' ready to go.



Yeah, I'm a gettin' ready to go

To a place called heaven

I'm gonna praise my Saviour's name

Everyday that I'm livin'.



Glory hallelujah, I'm not ashamed

To let the salvation show

This old world's just my dressin' room

And I'm a gettin' ready to go.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm gonna walk in there

With Jesus and my God

I wanna know everything'sa gonna be alright

When they lay me under to sod.



When he gathers his sheep

I wanna be as white as snow

This old world's just my dressin' room

And I'm a gettin' ready to go.



Yeah, I'm a gettin' ready to go

To a place called heaven

I'm gonna praise my Saviour's name

Everyday that I'm livin'.



Glory hallelujah, I'm not ashamed

To let the salvation show

This old world's just my dressin' room

And I'm a gettin' ready to go.



This old world's just my dressin' room

And I'm a gettin' ready to go...
