We Shall Wear a Robe & Crown Songtext
von Karen Peck and New River

Watch ye therefore you know not the day
When the Lord shall call your soul away
If you′re fighting, striving for the right
You shall wear a robe and crown
Watch ye therefore you know not the day
When the Lord shall call your soul away
If you're fighting, striving for the right
You shall wear a robe and crown

I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)
I'm gonna wear a crown (I′m gonna wear a crown)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
Ooh, I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)

Just as soon as my feet strike Zion, I′m gonna lay down (my heavy burden)
I'm gonna put on (my robe in glory)
I′m gonna shout (and tell him my story)
We shall wear a robe and crown


Watch ye therefore you know not the day
When the Lord shall call your soul away
If you're fighting, striving for the right
You shall wear a robe and crown

I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)
I'm gonna wear a crown (I′m gonna wear a crown)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
Ooh, I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)

Just as soon (as my feet strike Zion, I′m gonna lay down my heavy burden)
I'm gonna put on (my robe in glory)
Shout and tell the Christ story
Sit down beside Jesus, tell him how I made it over
Put on my robe in glory, shout and tell the Christ story
We shall wear a robe and crown

I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)
I′m gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
Ooh, I'm gonna wear a crown (I′m gonna wear a crown)


Just as soon (as my feet strike Zion)
I′m gonna lay down (my heavy burden)
I'm gonna put on (my robe in glory)
I′m gonna shout (and tell him my story)
We shall wear a robe and crown

Soon (as my feet strike Zion, I'm gonna lay down my heavy burden)
I′m gonna put on (my robe in glory)
Shout and tell the Christ story
Sit down beside Jesus, tell him how I made it over
Put on my robe in glory, shout and tell the Christ story
We shall wear a robe and crown

I'm gonna wear a crown (I′m gonna wear a crown)
I'm gonna wear a crown (I'm gonna wear a crown)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
When the trumpet sounds (when the trumpet sounds)
Ooh, I′m gonna wear a crown (I′m gonna wear a crown)

Just as soon (as my feet strike Zion)
I'm gonna lay down (my heavy burden)
I′m gonna put on (my robe in glory)
I'm gonna shout (and tell him my story)
We shall wear a robe and crown
