There’s a Black Horse Riding
He’s coming your way
Ain’t no use hiding
It’s judgment day
And if you see him
Coming your way
Go make your peace
I went out walkin’
To go kill a man
He deserved to die
But God took my hand
And showed me another way
Said here’s a path don’t stray
That’s my plan
Well the Sun is Dark
And the Moon is bright
There’s a black horse riding
Your way tonight
And when you meet him
And see his face
I pray to God
Your peace is made
Well there’s wasted space
And wasted memories
Wasted lives
And wasted days
And when that sun
Decides to set on you
There will be nothing
Left to waste
Well I’ll be gone
Come the springtime
Though the winter
Cold and still
I will stay
With flame and fire
‘Til the frost
Falls from the sill
There’s a Black Horse Riding
He’s comin’ your way
Ain't no use hiding
It’s judgment day
And when you see him
God takes your hand
Your peace is made
That is my plan
Your peace is made
That is my plan
