Blow, Gabriel, Blow

Do you hear that playin'? Do you know who's playin'? Why, it's Gabriel playin' Gabriel sayin' "Will you be ready to go? When I blow my horn?" Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow I've been a sinner, I've been a scamp But now I'm willin' to trim my lamp So, blow, Gabriel, blow I was low, Gabriel, low Mighty low, Gabriel, low But now, since I have seen the light I'm good by day and I'm good by night So, blow, Gabriel, blow Once I was headed for hell Once I was, I was headed for hell But when I got to Satan's door I heard you blowin' on your horn once more So, I said, "Satan, farewell!" And now, I'm ready to fly Yes, to fly high Higher and higher and higher 'Cause I've gone through the brimstone And I;ve been through the fire And I've purged my soul and my heart too So, climb up the mountain top And start to blow Gabriel, blow Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow I want to join your happy band And play all day in the promised land So, blow, Gabriel, blow Blow it
