Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How I got over
How I got over
You know, my soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 2]
How I got over
How I got over
You know, my soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 3]
Just as soon as I see Him
The man who made me free
Who was a man who bled and suffered
You know, He died for you and me
[Verse 4]
I wanna thank Him because he brought me
I wanna thank Him because he taught me
I wanna thank Him because he kept me
I wanna thank Him 'cause he never left me
[Verse 5]
I'm gonna sing (Hallelujah)
I'm gonna shout it out (How I got over)
You know, my soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 6]
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 7]
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 8]
I'm gonna wear a diamond ring
In the new Jerusalem
I'm gonna walk on the streets of gold
In the homeland of my soul
[Verse 9]
I'm looking for that girl in white
Who I dream of day and night
That ain't gonna achieve my salvation
From the broke and wrong damnation
[Verse 10]
I'm gonna sing (Hallelujah)
I'm gonna shout it out (How I got over)
You know, my soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 11]
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 12]
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 13]
I wanna thank You, thank You
Thank You, Father, thank You
Thank You, thank You, Lord
Thank You, thank You
[Verse 14]
I thank You from above
I thank You from above
I thank You from below
I thank You from above
[Verse 15]
I'm gonna sing (Hallelujah)
I'm gonna shout it out (How I got over)
You know, my soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 16]
How I got over (Everybody), over
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
[Verse 17]
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
How I got over
