Lyrics
I would risk the serpent's bite
I would dance around with seven
I would kiss the diamondback
If I knew it would get me to Heaven
'Cause I wanna get right with God
Yes, you know, you know I wanna get right with God
I would burn soles of my feet
Burn the palms of both my hands
If I could learn and be complete
If I could walk righteously again
'Cause you know I wanna get right with God
Yes, you know, you know I wanna get right with God
I would sleep on a bed of nails
'Til my back was torn and bleeding
In the deep darkness of Hell
The Damascus of my meetin'
'Cause I wanna get right with God
Yes, you know, you know I gotta get right with God
I asked God 'bout his plan
To save us from Satan's slaughter
If I give one of my lambs
Will you take me as one of your daughters?
'Cause I wanna get right with God
Yes, you know, you know I gotta get right with God
Yes, I wanna get right with God
Yes, you know, you know I gotta get right with God
