Jerry Lee Lewis — I Know That Jesus Will Be There

[Spoken]: I'd like to do one for you now, ladies and gentlemen Tryin' to get these songs in 'cause I wanna get 'em on the album‚ if we possibly can This is‚ um a song that-a Cecil Harrelson wrote Ah‚ it's a great song And ah, the name of it's, 'I Know That Jesus Will Be There' Waitin' for me Come to the crossroads of my life Took the right one‚ ha-ha-ha-ha-ha When my body breathes it's last breath And the sunrise, old Jerry fails to see When I walk that long lonesome mile Then there will be eternal peace for me Back in my younger by-gone years I had reached the crossroads of my life Haunted by the sin that I was living in I had to chose the road that lead to, Jesus Christ Now‚ I'm waiting for the harvest Of the seeds that I have sewn Oh I know, that they will lead me to To the right hand of God's Throne Yes, the path was long and narrow But each step I took with care When life's burdens all over My precious Jesus, will be there I can almost hear the angels singin' And the gates, those gates of pearl Will open wide, Hallelujah! Um-mum, the mystery of it all Is now unfolding And my reward will be eternal Eternal peace, inside Oh, I'm waiting for the harvest Of the seeds that I have sewn Oh I know, that they will lead me to To the right hand of God's Throne The path was long and narrow But each step I took with care When life's burdens are over I know that Jesus, He will be there
