How I got over How did I make it over You know my soul look back and wonder How I made it over How I made it over Coming on over all these years You know my soul look back and wonder How did I make it over Oh, but soon as I can see Jesus The Man that died for me The Man that bled and suffered He hung on Calvary And I wanna thank Him for how He brought me And I wanna thank God for how He taught me Thank my God how He kept me Oh, I'ma thank Him 'cause He never left me And I wanna thank God for old time religion And I wanna thank Him for giving me a vision And I'ma join the heavenly choir And I'ma sing and never get tired And I'ma sing glory, hallelujah Then I'ma shout all my trouble over Oh, I got to thank God Thank Him for being so good to me Tell me how I made it over, Lord, Lord I had a mighty hard time coming on over But you know my soul look back and wonder How did I make it over Tell me how I got over, Lord, Lord I've been falling and rising all these years But you know my soul look back and wonder How did I make it over Mmm, I'm gonna wear a diamond crown In that new Jerusalem I'm gonna walk streets of gold In that homeland one day of this soul Then I'm gonna view the host and mighty They've been traveling day and night Coming up from every nation They on their way to the great condemnation They coming from the north, south, east, and west They on their way to a land of rest Then we gonna join the heavenly choir Yes, we gonna shout and never get tired And then we gonna shout glory, hallelujah Then we gonna shout all our trouble over You know we gotta thank God Thank Him for being so good to me, yeah, yeah Just as soon as I can see Jesus You know the Man that died for me You know the Man that bled and suffered I say He hung on Calvary And I wanna thank Him for how He brought me And I wanna thank God for how He taught me Oh, thank my God how He kept me And I'm gonna thank Him 'cause He never left me And I'm gonna thank God for old time religion And I'm gonna thank Him for giving me a vision And I'ma join the heavenly choir And then I'm gonna shout and never get tired And then I'm gonna shout somewhere around the altar And then I'm gonna sing glory, hallelujah You know I've got to thank God Thank Him for being so, God's been good to me, yeah Just as soon as I can see Jesus You know the Man that died for me Oh, the Man that bled and suffered I say He hung on Calvary I wanna thank God for how He kept me And I'm gonna thank Him 'cause He never left me Gonna thank Him for old time religion Gonna thank Him 'cause He never left me, oh, yeah
