Across the Bridge Songtext
von The Blind Boys of Alabama

Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There′s no more sorrow (there's no more sorrow)
Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There′s no more pain (there's no more pain)
The sun will shine across the river (ah, ooh...)
And I'll never be unhappy again (never be unhappy again)

I have lived a life of sin in this world I′m living in
I have done forbidden things I shouldn′t do, oh yeah
I ask a friend along the way if he could tell me where to stay
Where I could find happiness and love so true


Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There's no more sorrow (there′s no more sorrow)
Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There's no more pain (there′s no more pain)
The sun will shine, oh, across the river (ah-ah-ah, uh-huh-huh)
And I'll never, never be unhappy again (never be unhappy again)

Follow the footsteps of the King ′til you hear the voices ring
They'll be singing out the glory of the land, oh yeah
The river Jordan will be new and the sound of trumpet you will hear
And you'll behold the most precious place never known to man
Eh-eh

Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There′s no more sorrow (there′s no more sorrow)
Across the bridge (across the bridge)
There's no more pain (there′s no more pain)
The sun will shine across the river (ah, ooh...)
And I'll never be unhappy again (never be unhappy again)

Eh, eh
I said I′ll never be unhappy again (never be unhappy again)
One more time
I'll never be unhappy again, yeah, hey (never be unhappy again)
