Notes About The Poem

Pearly Gates--

Nothing but the pearly gates
Nothing but the pearly gates;
Nothing but the pearly gates;
Shall allow me in;
Jesus has the key;
I rise, I’ll rise
And fly up into
And rise I will do
And fly up onto the gates of heaven…

No nothing no one gonna bring me down;
A new found freedom I am;
Saved by mercy’s grace;
I am being up lifted

And I rise, I’ll rise
And fly up into
And rise I will do
And fly up onto the gates of heaven…

I’ve got a crown to git;
I’ve got a crown to git;
I’ve got a crown to git, pray fully it’ll fit;
I’ve got something I want to give;
Praises to you Lord God Our King;
My life, my soul, my body mind heart is all yours, LORD;

Nothing gonna stop me now;
NO nothing, no one gonna bring me down
I got a crown to git right now;
