Hallelujah, jubileeHallelujah, jubileeHe stands behind the pulpitHe's calling out a lineResponds to congregationJust a little way's behindEchoes down the streets of goldThrough the Pearly GatesDribbles over the JordanAnd it goes on by the banksHe's rattling a Werther'sOn his dentures in the pewHe's holding down the bassIt's a little out of tuneBut his heart is in the hymnalAnd that's all a boy can doMake a joyful sound'Til the rest have come to roostHallelujah, jubileeI can hear the angel bandI was blind but now I seeAnd I'll jump right in amongst themWhen I reach the glory landShe's shouting in the aisleShe's shaking something fierceFeels so good to be hereAfter all these faithful yearsJust took a walk with JesusJust touched his nail scarred handsDidn't even bother herThat he ain't a blue eyed manHallelujah, jubileeI can hear the angel bandI was blind but now I seeAnd I'll jump right in amongst themWhen I reach the glory landThere's Hindus, Jews, and MuslimsAnd Baptists of all kindsCatholic girls and Amish boysWho've left their plows behindUp there in the choirSinging side by sideWondering why exactlyThey been fussing the whole timeHallelujah, jubileeI can hear the angel bandI was blind but now I seeAnd I'll jump right in amongst themWhen I reach the glory landHallelujah, jubileeHallelujah, jubileeI can hear the angel bandHallelujah
