i know that jesus will be there
Singer: jerry lee lewis
i'd like to do one for you now
ladies and gentlemen
tryin' to get these songs in 'cause i wanna get 'em on the album
if we possibly can
this is
um a song that-a cecil harrelson wrote
ah
it's a great song
and ah
the name of it's
'i know that jesus will be there'
waitin' for me
come to the crossroads of my life
took the right one
ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
when my body breathes it's last breath
and the sunrise
old jerry fails to see
when i walk that long lonesome mile
then there will be eternal peace for me
back in my younger by-gone years
i had reached the crossroads of my life
haunted by the sin that i was living in
i had to chose the road that lead to
jesus christ
now
i'm waiting for the harvest
of the seeds that i have sewn
oh i know
that they will lead me to
to the right hand of god's throne
yes
the path was long and narrow
but each step i took with care
when life's burdens all over
my precious jesus
will be there
i can almost hear the angels singin'
and the gates
those gates of pearl
will open wide
hallelujah!
um-mum
the mystery of it all
is now unfolding
and my reward will be eternal
eternal peace
inside
oh
i'm waiting for the harvest
of the seeds that i have sewn
oh i know
that they will lead me to
to the right hand of god's throne
the path was long and narrow
but each step i took with care
when life's burdens are over
i know that jesus
he will be there
