While The Ages Roll On Lyrics & Chords

By Ralph Stanley

(D)The Father above will (G)soon call me (D)home

I'll lay down my prod at lights early (A)dawn

(D)I'll follow the light (G)that's shining for (D)me

And somewhere beyond (A)Mt. Zion I'll (D)see



Chorus

(D)While the ages roll on while the ages roll on

I'll (G)walk with the (D)King  I'll (G)walk with the (D)King

On the streets made of gold  on the streets made of gold

I'll (E)shout and I'll (A)sing  I'll shout and I'll sing

I'll never look back on (G)life's stormy (D)sea

On top of Mt. (A)Zion I'll (D)be



My footsteps are slow  I've walked my last mile

I've waited so proud for just a short while

When the trumpet shall sound  I'll be sleeping no more

I'll join with love ones  who've gone on before



Up there at the throne  God at last I shall see

The robe and the crown is waiting for me

No sports cars we'll ride  to sharpen the sword

We'll live in sweet peace  for evermore
