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
