Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Heard the voice of Jesus say
Come unto me, I am the way
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on When my way gets dark as night
I know the lord will be my light
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on You can talk about me much as you please
The more you talk, gonna stay on my knees
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on When I get to heaven, gonna sing and shout
Be nobody there to put me out
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on When I get to heaven, gonna sing and shout

Keep your hand on the plow, hold on I know my robe’s gonna fit me well
I tried it on at the gates of Hell
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on Hold on Hold on Keep your hand on the plow, hold on

Always heard that Aretha Franklin wanted to play Miss Mahalia Jackson in a movie version of her life. I wish she would. Can think of nobody better to play her than Aretha. Love this post. Thank you so much. Peace.
