Kneel At The Feet Of Jesus
Morning Devotion: Finding Redemption in Willie Nelson's Melody
Lyrics
Well I guess I been hanging around too long
Feeling a sense of lingering for too long.
It's just about time I was moving along
Expressing the need to move on or make a change.
But I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Commitment to prayer and seeking spiritual solace from Jesus in the morning.
And don't you worry and don't you moan
Assuring others not to worry or be troubled.
It's just about time I was moving along
Reiteration of the need to move on.
But I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Reaffirmation of the commitment to prayer in the morning.
I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Repeated commitment to kneeling at Jesus' feet in the morning.
I'm a gonna leave this sinful world before the dawning
Expressing the intention to leave the sinful world before dawn.
Don't you worry and don't you moan
Reassurance not to worry or be distressed.
It's just about time I was moving along
Reiteration of the need to move on.
I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Recommitment to prayer in the morning.
And just one thing before you carry me away
Request or instruction before facing the inevitable end.
Don't you bury me deep 'cause I ain't gonna stay
Desire not to be buried deeply, indicating a readiness to move on beyond death.
I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Recommitment to prayer in the morning even after death.
Just a little bit of dirt and a little bit of gravel
Symbolic mention of burial elements, suggesting a desire for a simple departure.
Don't you weigh me down 'cause you know I gotta travel
Encouragement not to burden with unnecessary weight as there's a journey ahead.
And I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Recommitment to spiritual devotion in the morning.
And I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Repetition of the commitment to prayer.
I'm a gonna leave this sinful world before the dawning
Intention to leave the sinful world before dawn reiterated.
Don't you worry and don't you moan
Reassurance not to worry or be distressed.
It's just about time I was moving along
Reiteration of the need to move on.
And I'm gonna kneel at the feet of Jesus in the morning
Final commitment to prayer in the morning.
