Move On Up Little Higher |
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 |
