As sung by Pastor & Mrs. Buck Ledford, Heavenly Mansion, LFLP 22 DELIVERANCE WILL COME (Traditional) I saw a wayworn traveler in tattered garments clad While struggling up the mountain, it seemed that he was said His back was laden heavy, his strength was almost gone But he shouted as he journeyed, "Deliverance will come!" CHORUS Then palms of victory, crowns of glory Palms of victory I shall bare I saw him in the evening, the sun was bending low He'd overtopped the mountain and reached the vale below While gazing on that city, his everlasting home He shouted loud "Hosanna, deliverance will come!" CHORUS He saw that holy city, his everlasting home A band of holy angels all gathered 'round God's throne They bore him on their pinions safe o'er the dashing foam And they shouted "Hallelujah, deliverance has come" CHORUS
