If I gave you my blessing and bid you goodby

And something is holding me down

Once I was baptized but that was all right

Now If I just can be found

Living for Jesus day after day nobody lives quite that strong

Blessed insurance is one thing to know and another to sing in a song

Well the family possessions passed on to me

No longer fit in my hands

Once I was saved that one was free

I'd be pleased to know just where I stand

Living for Jesus making it pay well nobody lives quite that long

Once I was baptized but now I am free singing that new gospel song

Singing higher and higher and higher
