People, keep on learnin'!
Soldiers, keep on warrin'!
World, keep on turnin',
cause it won't be too long.
The Powers keep on lyin',
While your people keep on dyin'.
World, keep on turnin',
cause it won't be too long.
I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
For my last time on Earth
I lived a whole lotta sin
I'm so darn glad I know more than I knew then
I'm gonna keep on tryin 'til I reach my
Higher Ground
Teachers, keep on teachin'!
Preachers, keep on preachin'!
World, keep on turnin',
cause it won't be too long.
Lovers, keep on lovin',
while believers keep on believin'.
Sleepers, just stop sleepin',
'cause it won't be too long.
I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
For my last time on Earth, I lived a whole lotta sin
I'm so darn glad I know more than I knew then
I'm gonna keep on tryin 'til I reach my Higher Ground
(Em G A)
Till I reach the higher ground. (3 times)
