Lyrics
"Get There"
By Louis E. Nelson c. 2008
(1st Verse)
Within a room of players - she had an angel's face
And she passed the guitar over to the next to take her place
His hands laid down a melody on the golden strings that rang
And one by one they all began and this is what they sang, they said I'm gonna'
(Chorus)
Get there . . . yes, I'll get there . . . I know I'll get there in time.
Yes, I'm gonna' get there . . . I know I'll get there . . . I know I'll get there in time.
(Refrain)
It was like they opened up a door, and that I would be back for more
I knew what I was looking for was there
Forgive the ones who've done you wrong, He teaches peace and walks along
And you can thank him for the song He shares, all you gotta' do is
(Chorus)
Get there . . . yes, get there . . . all you gotta' do is get there . . . get there in time
Yes you'll get there . . . I know you're gonna get there . . . you will get there
You'll get there in time
(2nd Verse)
I opened up my eyes and I'd been sleeping in my bed
And all at once was sorry it had all been in my head
But long before the sorrow brought a teardrop to my eyes
I realized that he who walks beside Him never dies, and I know I'm gonna"
(Chorus)
Get there . . yes, I'll get there . . . I know I'll get there in time . . . I know I'm gonna' get there . . . yes, I'll get there . . . I know I'll get there in time.
(3rd Verse)
I looked across the water and the sky was burning down
I saw the children crying but I could not hear a sound
I prayed for a messiah that he help me understand
He said I cannot love them fore I don't live in their land, but he said I gotta'
(Chorus)
Get there . . . yes, get there . . . I know I'll get there . . . I'll get there in time
(Closing Phrase: You know we're gonna' get there in time)
