Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We don't need no truth, got plenty now
It grows on trees
God, I'm glad it's not a race, I'd lose
Theres no saint and there's no sinner
Done more dirt than me
I know that we can do more right than me
I need to find a paradise for me
[Verse 2]
When we want it
We just ask it
God is ready
But you don't want it
So they tell me
Heaven's waiting
For the sinner
God is ready
When you're ready
[Verse 3]
World keeps turning
Shine your light
Shine
Shine
[Verse 4]
So they tell me
Heaven's waiting
For the sinner
God is ready
When you're ready
Shine
[Verse 5]
When we want it
We just ask it
God is ready (God is ready)
When you're ready
But you don't want it
God is ready
So they tell me (So they tell me)
Heaven's waiting
For the sinner
God is ready
When you're ready
[Verse 6]
Shine
Shine
[Verse 7]
So they tell me
Heaven's waiting
For the sinner
God is ready
When you're ready
[Verse 8]
Shine
Shine
Shine
Shine (Shine)
Shine
Shine
[Verse 9]
So they tell me
Heaven's waiting
For the sinner
God is ready
When you're ready
Shine
