Emmylou Harris Emmylou Harris - Get Up John Lyrics

Well get up john go down to jordan
Get up john prepare the way
Man from galilee is waiting
You must meet him there today

Get up john go tell my people
This will be a holy day
Tell them of the jew thats waiting
That the saviors on the way

John
Even the children
John
Go unafraid
John
Ill go with you
John the baptist
This is the day

Well get up john go tell jerusalem
Saviors waiting on the shore
Baptize him in the river jordan
Ill send a dove from heavens door

John
Even the children
John
Go unafraid
John
Ill go with you
John the baptist
This is the day

Well get up john your work is finished
Daylight breaks the soldiers come
You will die for me tomorrow
Welcome home your race is run

John
Youve been chosen
John
Go unafraid
John
Ill go with you
John the baptist
