Angel Band (Jubilee Version)

Hallelujah

Jubilee

Hallelujah

Jubilee

He stands behind the pulpit

He's callin' out a line

Responds to congregation

Just a little ways behind

Echoes down the streets of gold

Through the Pearly Gates

Dribbles o'er the Jordan

And it goes on by the banks

He's rattlin' a Werther's

On his dentures in the pew

He's holdin' down the bass

It's a little out of tune

But his heart is in the hymnal

And that's all a boy can do

Make a joyful sound

'Til the rest have come to roost

Hallelujah, jubilee

I can hear the angel band

I was blind, but now I see

And I'll jump right in amongst them

When I reach the glory land

She's shoutin' in the aisle

She's shakin' somethin' fierce

Feels so good to be here

After all these faithful years

Just took a walk with Jesus

Just touched his nail-scarred hands

Didn't even bother her

That he ain't a blue-eyed man

Hallelujah, jubilee

I can hear the angel band

I was blind, but now I see

And I'll jump right in amongst them

When I reach the glory land

There's Hindus, Jews, and Muslims

And Baptists of all kinds

Catholic girls and Amish boys

Who've left their plows behind

Up there in the choir

Singin' side by side

Wonderin' why exactly

They've been fussin' the whole time

Hallelujah, jubilee

I can hear the angel band

I was blind, but now I see

And I'll jump right in amongst them

When I reach the glory land

Hallelujah

Jubilee

Hallelujah

Jubilee

I can hear

The angel band

Hallelujah
