| Jesus wrote a blank check | 
| One I haven’t cashed quite yet | 
| I hope I got a little more time | 
| I hope it’s not the end of the line | 
| Yeah, Jesus wrote a blank check | 
| Ah, one I haven’t cashed yet, all right | 
| Well, 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 | 
| Yeah, 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 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, uh-huh | 
| 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 | 
| Ah, still I burn this earthen fire | 
| Still I burn this earthen fire | 
| Still I burn this earthen fire | 
| Still I burn this earthen fire |
