Blow, Gabriel, Blow

Do you hear that playin'?

Yes, we hear that playin'!

You know who's playin'?

No, who is that playin'?

Well, it's Gabriel, Gabriel playin'!

Gabriel, Gabriel sayin'

"Will you be ready to go

When I blow my horn?"

Oh, blow, Gabriel, blow,

Go on blow, Gabriel, blow!

I've been a sinner, I've been a scamp,

But now I'm willin' to trim my lamp,

So blow, Gabriel, blow!

Oh, I was low, Gabriel, low,

Mighty low, Gabriel, low.

But now since I have seen the light,

I'm good by day and I'm good by night,

So blow, Gabriel, blow!

Once I was headed for hell,

Once I was headed for hell;

But when I got to Satan's door

I heard you blowin' on your horn once more,

So I said, "Satan, farewell!"

And now you're all ready to fly,

Yes, to fly higher and higher and higher!

'Cause you've gone through brimstone

And you've been through the fire,

And you purged your soul

And your heart too,

So climb up the mountaintop

And start to blow, Gabriel, blow

Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow!

I want to join your happy band

And play all day in the Promised Land.

So blow, Gabriel, blow!

Blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow

I wanna join your happy band

And play all day in the Promised Land,

So blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow,

Blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow

Blow, Gabriel, blow!
