A ^Embrother I knew ^Ca long time ^Bmago,
Walked ^Eminto the cloud of God I am told,
He ^Ementered the pres^Cence where sin^Bmhad no place,
and took off his shoes,
His fa^Emce shined of God's grace.

On ^Amthe ground where he ^Emstood
in the presence of God,
A^Ambush started burning,
^Emand it never did stop,
Co^Amme closer my friend,
^Emsaid the voice in the cloud,
^BmTake off your shoes,
yo^Emu're on my holy ground.

My^Em brother was cha^Cnged
that day till his last,
He^Bm brought down the Law,^Em
from the stone God had cast.
He^Em came down the ^Cmountain
and told all he saw,
and^Bm those who would listen^Em
It brought oohs and brought some aahs.

On ^Amthe ground that he st^Emood
in the presence of God,
the ^Ambush started burning^Em
and it never did stop.
Co^Amme closer my friend^Em
said the voice in the cloud,
but^Bm take off your shoes,
yo^Emu're on my holy ground.
