Walking Barefoot There's No Need For Shoes Walking On the Streets Paved With Gold In God's Glory-

Family, there are these quaint elder travelers Not? Yet a hundred years old, they've been gone from on top of this Earth Now they're walking streets of gold So now these travelers ain't got no shoes And yet they got spirit and heart For these travelers no plans no man and yet they carry your heart So I'm a singing some are praising Some preaching speaking shouting and rejoicing Some are dancing with the wind These old saints just won't quit Cuz! they ain't got no good sense For you see the feet are never dirty And yes they have no shoes Cause where there at no need for them They now stand and walk on Holy Ground Yepum! Those there alive and well walking them streets of gold Some think they're dead they died But yet they're walking on the promise side They're marching O Lord have mercy they be Marching on streets of gold Hallelujah they walk in gloryside These are the travelers my ancestors who fought and loved now died They yet live walking streets of Glory Walking with the Lord and God the Father and our past loved ones in heaven Walking Barefoot no need for shoe on the streets so paved with gold This is what my mom told me about Her family's role now I ain't disappointed but I am grateful For they have paved the way Yes they paved the way yes they have a grave but their body ain't there You see some have come and stayed in glory maybe if you have went to hell And those yet living up and Heaven they wave they walk on Marching Hallelujah trail Glory waving hands and they hail Father God forever praise As they walk on they walk the streets of gold Hallelujah always yet to those past slaves now they Walk on in freedoms glory No longer walking in the dirt dust and atop of cobblestones WALKING BAREFOOT NO NEED FOR SHOES ON THE STREETS SO PAVE WITH GOLD IN GODS GLORY
