Thread Name: Tune Req: Religion Is A Fortune
Subject: Lyr Add: RELIGION IS A FORTUNE
Opps! The words as given don't quite fit the music. It's a great example of camp meeting style with Hallelujah's inserted into the text and a chorus on the end. For the music with 1st line as A, 2nd as B--A,A,B,A
Verse 1 (A,A) Oh when shall I see Jesus, And reign with Him above? Shout glory, halle, hallelujah And from the flowing fountain, Drink everlasting love? Shout glory, halle, hallelujah
Chorus: B,A When we all get to heaven, We will shout aloud and sing, Shout glory, halle, hallelujah. Religion is a fortune, And heaven is a home, Shout glory, Halle, hallelujah.
Verse 2 When shall I be delivered From this vain world of sin? Shout glory, halle, hallelujah. And with my blessed Jesus Drink endless pleasures in? Shout glory, halle, hallelujah.
