One Of These Days

words and music by Mitch McVicker

One of these days I just might lose my mind
One of these days I might believe
One of these days my feet might come alive
To walk along with royalty
And keep pace with my King
One of these days I just might lose my life
One of these days I might break free
One of these days my heart might finally sigh
Deep enough that I would weep
Tears of healing down my cheeks

Chorus
Maybe someday soon now I'll leave the world behind
When my weary soul learns that it has the wings to fly
And with a million angels I'll sail across the sky
Into His arms of love
And so I'm waitin' with all I am for that day to come

One of these days I just might finally love
One of these days I might give
One of these days my will might turn to dust
And leave me empty enough to live
But He's gonna fill me up again

Chorus
Maybe someday soon now I'll leave the world behind
When my weary soul learns that it has the wings to fly
And with a million angels I'll sail across the sky
Into His arms of love
So I'm waitin' with all I am

Bridge
For one of these days, 'cause I'm gonna believe
Yeah one of these days, I'm gonna break free
I'm gonna reach into the night
Not settle for just the stars
I'm gonna move right by them
I'm gonna let Him find me in the dark

Chorus
Maybe someday soon now I'll leave the world behind
When my weary soul learns that it has the wings to fly
And with a million angels I'll sail across the sky
Into His arms of love
And so I'm waitin' with all I am for that day to come
It's gonna come
One of these days I just might

I wanted to write a new song for a set of concerts I was doing a year and a half ago. I had felt I was in a writing slump for a while and I was pleased to come out of it with this song.
