Hans Theessink - Run for a Long Time lyrics

You can run on for a long time Run on for a long long time Run on for a long time Sooner or later God'll cut you down Gather round me children – let me tell you the news My head's been wet with the midnight dew I've been down on my bended knees Talking to the man from Gallilee He spoke to me in a voice so sweet I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet He placed one hand upon my head Great God almighty – let me tell you what he said Go tell that long tongue liar Go tell that midnight rider Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter Tell 'em great God almighty gonna cut 'em down You may throw your rock – hide your hand Working in the dark against your fellow man But as sure as God made black and white What's done in the dark will be brought to the light But as sure as God made rich and poor You gonna reap just what you sow Go tell that long tongue liar Go tell that midnight rider Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter Tell 'em great God almighty gonna cut 'em down You can run on for a long time…
