I Will Move On Up a Little Higher

歌詞

One a-these mornings Soon one morning I'm gonna lay down my cross Get me a crown Soon one evening Late in the evening Late in the evening I'm going home to live on high Soon as my feet strike Zion Lay down my heavy burdens Put on my robe in Glory Goin' home, one day, and tell my story I been climbing over hills and mountains Gonna drink from the Christian fountain You know, all a-God's sons and daughters, that morning Will be drinking that ol' healing water And we gonna live on forever We gonna live on forever We gonna live on, up in Glory after while I'm goin out sight-seeing in Buelah March all around God's alter Gonna walk and never get tired Gonna fly, Lord, and never faulter I'm gonna move up a little higher Gonna meet ol' man Daniel I'm gonna move up a little higher Gonna meet the Hebrew Children I'm gonna move up a little higher Gonna meet Paul and Silas I'm gonna move on up a little higher Gonna meet my friends and kindred I'm gonna move on up a little higher Gonna meet my loving mother I'm gonna move on up a little higher Gonna meet that Lily of the Valley I'm gonna feast with the Rose of Sharon It will be always howdy howdy It will be always howdy howdy It will be always howdy howdy And never goodbye Oh, will you be there early one morning Will you be there, somewhere 'round God's alter Will you be there, oh, when the angels shall call God's roll God knows I'll be waiting, hmmm Yes, I'll be watching somewhere 'round God's alter Well, I'll be waiting, oh, at the beautiful, yes, golden gates Well, well, soon as my feet strike Zion Gonna lay down my heavy burdens Gonna put on my robe in Glory I'm going home, one day, tell my story I been climbing over hills and mountains I'm gonna drink from the Christian fountain You know all God, God's sons and daughters that mornin' Will drink that ol' healing water Meet me there, early one morning Meet me there, somewhere 'round the alter Meet me there, oh, when the angels shall call God's roll
