Lyrics : Sermon (Demo)
A-one, two, three, four
Let me set the mood, set the situation
Imagine you're sittin' in the congregation
Hey, he's talkin' 'bout Judgment Day
If you listen real close, here's what he say
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You may run on for a long time
But let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
Go 'n' tell that long-tongued liar
Go 'n' tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler, rambler, backbiter
Tell him God Almighty gonna cut him down
Great God Almighty, let me tell you news
Yes, my head's been wet with the midnight dews
I been down on my bended knees
Talkin' to the man from Galilee
My God spoke, He spoke so sweet
I thought I heard the shufflin' of angels' feet
He, put one hand on my head
Great God Almighty let me tell you what He said
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You may run on for a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
You may throw a rock, hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But sure as God made the day and night
What you do in the dark will be brought to light
You may slip and slide, slip and slide
Try to take the mote from your neighbor's eye
But sure as God made the rich and poor
What you reap, my brother, is what you sow
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You run on for a long time
But let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
Some people go to church just to signify
They try to make a date with their neighbor's wife
But neighbor, let me tell you, just as sure as your born
You better leave that woman, better leave her alone
One of these days just mark my words
You'll think that your brother's gone off to work
Well, now, you' walk up and knock on the door
That's all, brother, there ain't no more
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You're gonna run on for a long time
But let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
Go 'n' tell that long-tongued liar
Go 'n' tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, gambler, backbiter
Tell him God Almighty gonna cut him down
Alright
Let me set the mood, set the situation
Imagine you're sittin' in the congregation
Hey, he's talkin' 'bout Judgment Day
If you listen real close, here's what he say
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You may run on for a long time
But let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
Go 'n' tell that long-tongued liar
Go 'n' tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler, rambler, backbiter
Tell him God Almighty gonna cut him down
Great God Almighty, let me tell you news
Yes, my head's been wet with the midnight dews
I been down on my bended knees
Talkin' to the man from Galilee
My God spoke, He spoke so sweet
I thought I heard the shufflin' of angels' feet
He, put one hand on my head
Great God Almighty let me tell you what He said
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You may run on for a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
You may throw a rock, hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But sure as God made the day and night
What you do in the dark will be brought to light
You may slip and slide, slip and slide
Try to take the mote from your neighbor's eye
But sure as God made the rich and poor
What you reap, my brother, is what you sow
You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You run on for a long time
