From Graceland To The Promised Land |
From the sun years of the fifties and the birth of rock and roll |
Millions screamed to see him do his thing |
Elvis touched the life of every ear that heard him |
And they couldn’t help but listen when he sang |
It’s a long way from Memphis to that mansion in the sky |
But he kept his faith in Jesus all along |
It’s a long way from Graceland across Jordan to the Promised Land |
But Jesus finally came to lead him home |
From the days of Love Me Tender to his mama’s last farewell |
Some say he knew how long he had to stay |
His life was two days longer than the one who gave him life |
And he almost knew the number of the days |
