Hovie Lister - Glory, Glory, Clear The Road lyrics

[Chorus] Glory glory clear the road I'm tired of totin this heavy load Old St Peter I'm a running late Can't you get that key and unlock the gate [Verse 1: Big Chief] Once I heard a preacher man Preachin' 'bout that promised land How it flowed with sparkling wine Luscious fruit hung on the vine Not a worry, not a care All is peace and no despair For on that day I had aspired To reach that land that's so desired [Chorus] [Verse 2: Big Chief] Then He preached about that place That's reserved for fallen race And damnation for the stray That would come along the way There is Devil is a-waitin by a might lake of fire All the rest you know so well Only flame they call it Hell [Chorus] [Bridge] [Jake Hess] I'm gonna preach now (oh yeah) I'm gonna tell you how (oh yeah) How you can get upstairs (oh yeah) How you can reach that city so bright and fair You gotta live right (oh yeah) You gotta pray each night (oh yeah) Down on your bended knee (oh yeah) You gotta trust in God He'll make you free Up in the good land (oh yeah) Where all the righteous stand (oh yeah) I'm gonna see His face (oh yeah) He's gonna say "My child you've run the race" [Denver Crumpler] Beauty so rare, (oh yeah) It's beyond compare (oh yeah) You'll never know a care (oh yeah) Up on the golden streets so bright and fair Then you'll be shouting Glory, glory glory clear the road
