Artist/Band: Statler Brothers
Lyrics for Song: The Kingdom of Heaven Is at Hand
Lyrics for Album: Holy Bible/Old & New Testaments [Mercury] [1979]



(Written by Lew DeWitt)



Jesus walked that lonesome road to preach the gospel news

But someone walked ahead to pave the way

One who felt he wasn't fit to carry Jesus shoes

A wooley man adorned in disarray.



A man who got his feet wet for the glory of the Lord

John the Baptist was a chosen man

His voice called from the wilderness a warning and the word

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.



He must have made an awesome sight

In clothes of camels hair

Around his waist he wore a leather band

Preachin' and Baptizin' as he wondered here and there.

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand .



One day Jesus came to Jordans banks to be Baptized

John the Baptist tried to turn Him down

Lord I feel inadequate and then he emphasised

It should be the other way around.



But John was soon convinced and he consented by and by

It must be done to fulfill God's command

Coz God was lookin' down on him and time was drawin' nigh

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand.



Livin' on wild honey and grasshoppers and the Word

He went to Jordan lookin' lean and tan

Preachin' and baptizin' and the people came and heard

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand.

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand.

The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand...
