Old black preacher in the pulpit
The city of angels burning ’round
And he says, “I will still preach the Good News
After this ol’ Baptist church burns down”
‘Cause you don’t know when the hour comes
And the Lord calls you home
Don’t you know we’re all walkin’
Down the Galilee Road
Keep on movin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Keep on walkin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
A young man lies in the crossroad
In a pool of his own blood
The angry city fell upon him
It all came down like a flood
She lifts his head as he lie dying
She whispers a prayer as his soul goes
Above the city of angels
And a way on down the Galilee Road
Keep on movin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Keep on walkin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Lord, I am not an angel
With feet of clay and a heart of stone
But I am headed for a city
At the end of this Galilee Road
Keep on movin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Keep on walkin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Keep on movin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
Keep on walkin’, a long way to go
One step forward down the Galilee Road
