Lyrics for Song: I Know
Lyrics for Album: Common Thread [Word Entertainment] [2005]
Some people say, that this old time religion
is just a thing of the past
But in this modern age that we're livin'
It's the only thing that will last.
Now you may think I'm a little old fashioned
Well friend, that's alright with me
'Cause I'm so glad that I am a Christian
And from sin I have been set free.
I know, I know, there's no doubt about it
He's real in my heart, and I'm gonna shout it
I know, I know, my sins are forgiven
And I'm on my way to a place thats called heaven.
Not long ago, at an old fashioned meeting
I knelt on my knees there in prayer
He lifted my burdens and shackles fell from me
And his presence was so real everywhere.
Now that the load I carry is lighter
and He's changed the grey skies to blue
My steps are now higher for I have this assurance
That His sweet love will carry me through.
Come go with me to that land over yonder
He's prepared for the pure and the true
It's a place where sickness and death can not enter
I'm going, brother, how about you?
Maybe today, maybe tomorrow
He'll return in robes of pure white
I'm packing up now, getting my things together
Who knows, He might come tonight...
