Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road - Everything Good Version
It was a wide spot out in the country, away from the lights of the city
Where an old time preacher pitched a ragged old tent
Looked like it was a hundred years old
He started out preaching to no one
Pretty soon a crowd started gathering
And he preached the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
I turned into a wild man, some people said I've gone crazy
But all too soon came the harvest of the wild seeds that I had sown
I stumbled into the meeting
I was looking like death warmed over
Then I heard the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
When they sing "Come ye sinners, lost and hopeless"
Lord, I was hopeless, heaven knows
Then something got a hold of me, something got a hold, hallelujah
When I heard the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
It's still a wide spot out in the country away from the lights of the city
I pitched that old tent that he gave me the day that he died and went home
Sometimes I start preaching to no one
But pretty soon a crowd starts gathering
And I preach the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
And we sing "Come ye sinners, lost and hopeless"
Lord, I was hopeless, heaven knows
Well, something got a hold of me, something got a hold, hallelujah
When I heard the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
Glory (glory, hallelujah)
I said glory (glory, hallelujah)
Hey-hey, glory (glory, hallelujah)
Glory, glory, glory
And they sing "Come ye sinners, lost and hopeless"
Lord, I was hopeless, heaven knows
Oh, something got a hold of me, something got a hold, hallelujah
When I heard the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
When I heard the gospel at the corner of Heartbreak Ridge and New Hope Road
Glory (glory, hallelujah)
Glory (glory, hallelujah)
