Lyrics
One step closer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a (...) preacher on the street tonight
He's got a little black Bible in his hand
Aaah he's blessed in the gospel meeting in those parking lights
He's aimed at the promise land
There's a young man pushing the gospel plow
He carries his heart in his hand
Light (...) in the world, don't know how, he's a patient man
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
(..) waging a holy war, God's name it makes him stand
Aaaah Satan's on his trail, demons at his door, combat is hand to hand
And the theologian looks for the questions
He keeps his (legs burning bright ?)
He's determined to see God's election (...)
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
One step closer, walking, walking, walking
