Jesus wrote a blank check,
  One I haven't cashed quite yet.
  I hope I've got a little more time.
  I hope it's not the end of the line.
  Yeah, Jesus wrote a blank check.
  One I haven't cashed yet, all right.
    But if I had to choose a number,
  I'd want it to be number one.
  I don't want to be number two.
  Yeah, I don't want to be number four.
  But I can hear a knock on the door.
  Jesus wrote a blank check, all right.
    If Jesus saw me dying,
  Would angels come a flying down?
  I hope I've got a little more time.
  I hope somebody lends me a dime.
  Now, Jesus wrote a blank check.
  Ah, one I haven't cashed yet.
    Still I build my towers high.
  I watch them pierce the blue, blue sky.
  Still I wallow in the mire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
    Still I build my towers high.
  I watch them pierce the blue, blue sky.
  Still I wallow in the mire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
    Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
  Still I burn this earthen fire.
