Songtext von Kingdom Of Heaven Is At Hand

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 Cause God was lookin' down on him and time was drawin' nigh The kingdom of heaven is at hand Living on wild honey and grasshoppers and the word He went to Jordan looking 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
