The Stanley Brothers - Jacob's Ladder lyrics

Hallelujah to Jesus who died on the tree To raise up his ladder of mercy for me Press onward climb upward the top is in view There's a crown of bright glory awaiting for you As Jacob was travellin was weary one day His head on a stone for a pillow did lay A vision appeared of a ladder so high It stood on the earth while the top reached the sky This ladder was tall and yet so well made Stood thousands of years and never decayed High winds from the heaven's they reeled and they rocked But the angels they guarded from bottom to top
