Once We’re Over The Line

[Chorus]
Once we're over the line, sweet Jesus
Once we're over the line
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line
Waitin' til the angel calls us home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that it ain't a long time
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line

[Verse 1]
New-ews from abo-o-ove was told to me
By an angel and he explained, you see
I felt destroyed when I learned about the ki-in-ing that he got upset
If I refused to take us out of there
He'd surely strike You dead

[Chorus]
And so now
Once we're over the line, sweet Jesus
Once we're over the line
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line
Waitin' til the angel calls us home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that it ain't a long time
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line

[Verse 2]
I was sent awa-ay-ay across the Nile
But the tide is turning 'cause You're an awesome child
Amid all the pyramids I got some welcome news
Yeah, that God supplied
The deadly king that's been hunting You
You know, he up and died

[Chorus]
And so now
Once we're over the line, sweet Jesus
Once we're over the line
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line
Don't you know I'm celebratin'
'Cause the angel called us home, sweet Mary
Opened up the gates, it's all fine
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know I'm celebratin'
'Cause the angel called us home, sweet Mary
(Opened up the gates it's all fine)
Opened up the gates it's all fine
(Settle on down in a real, nice place then)
Settle in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line

[Chorus]
My family
Once we're over the line, sweet Jesus
(Once we're over the line) Once we're over the line
(Settle on down in a real, nice place then) Settle in a real, nice place then
(Once we're over the line) Once we're . . . over the line
(Don't you know I'm celebratin') Yeah, because the angel called us home
('Cause the angel called us home, sweet Mary)
(Opened up the gates it's all fine) Opened up the gates it's all fine
(Settle on down in a real, nice place then) Settle in a real, nice place then
(Once we're over the line) Once we're . . . over the line
Settle on down in a real, nice place then
Once we're over the line
No joke
Once we're over the line
