Hank Williams - When The Book Of Life Is Read lyrics

Recorded by hank williams, sr. Words and music by hank williams, sr. Capo: 4th fret/key: f#/play: d [d] in life's many battles that [g] you will have to [d] fight Just stay close to jesus and [e7] journey in his [a7] light Then [d] on that judgement morning [g] when all pain has [d] fled You'll stand in god's kingdom, when the [a7] book of life is [d] read. [g] when the seals are broken and [d] names are read aloud You'll see many loved ones [e7] standin' in the [a7] crowd So [d] brother keep on prayin' and [g] follow where you're [d] lead You'll stand in god's kingdom, when the [a7] book of life is [d] read. All your dreams of heaven will come true on that day When the sky shall open and this earth melt away Then all god's faithful children will raise up from the dead United in god's kingdom, when the book of life is read. What a happy feelin' to know he'll always care And when our work is over heaven with him we'll share There's be no pain or sorrow, no tears will e'er be shed When we stand there in god's kingdom and the book of life is read. Note. chords for 3rd and 4th verses same as 1st and 2nd
