Al Wordlaw – On The Road To Kingdom Come lyrics
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) 8 X
I know not how he's traveling
Or exactly just where he's been
But I know the 'stranger's' coming,
Like a figment in my dream,
He has been a million places,
From Rome to Timbuktu,
From the vast Sahara Desert
To the mountains of Peru,
Change 1
He could sail into the harbour
On a boat with hoisted flags,
But more likely in some alley
As a vagrant dressed in rags,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) 8 X
There'll be no trumpets sounding
Or parade for "welcome home,”
You will not recognize this man,
He'll walk the streets alone,
He may approach you humbly,
Head bowed, with beggar's cup,
"Please Sir, can you spare a dime,
So one like me may sup,”
He'll test if you are worthy,
So be generous and kind
To even homeless vagrants,
Infringing on your time,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) repeat 16 X
Then, maybe if your heart is true,
When his work on Earth is done,
You'll become his fellow traveller
On the Road To Kingdom come,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) repeat out
I know not how he's traveling
Or exactly just where he's been
But I know the 'stranger's' coming,
Like a figment in my dream,
He has been a million places,
From Rome to Timbuktu,
From the vast Sahara Desert
To the mountains of Peru,
Change 1
He could sail into the harbour
On a boat with hoisted flags,
But more likely in some alley
As a vagrant dressed in rags,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) 8 X
There'll be no trumpets sounding
Or parade for "welcome home,”
You will not recognize this man,
He'll walk the streets alone,
He may approach you humbly,
Head bowed, with beggar's cup,
"Please Sir, can you spare a dime,
So one like me may sup,”
He'll test if you are worthy,
So be generous and kind
To even homeless vagrants,
Infringing on your time,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) repeat 16 X
Then, maybe if your heart is true,
When his work on Earth is done,
You'll become his fellow traveller
On the Road To Kingdom come,
(He’s on the road to kingdom come) repeat out
