Reef - How I Got Over Lyrics

How I got over, how I got over
You know my soul looks back and wonders how I got over

Just as soon as I see the man who made me free
He was the man who bled and suffered
You know he died for you and me

I wanna thank him because he brought me
I wanna thank him because he taught me
I wanna thank him because he kept me
I wanna thank him cause he never left me

I'm gonna sing hallelujah
I'm gonna shout it out
You know my soul looks back and wonders how I got over
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders how I got over

I'm gonna wear a diamond ring
In the new Jerusalem
I'm gonna walk down the streets of gold
In the homeland of my soul
And feel for that girl in white
Who I dream of day and night
Better gonna shift my salvation

I'm gonna sing hallelujah
I'm gonna shout it out
You know my soul looks back and wonders how I got over
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders how I got over

I wanna thank you, thank you
Thank you, oh, thank you
Thank you, thank you, Lord
Thank you, thank you

I'm gonna sing hallelujah
I'm gonna shout it out
You know my soul looks back and wonders how I got over
How I got over, over
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders
My soul looks back and wonders how I got over
