[Verse 1]
When Moses walked the children out of Egypt land
Said now don't you worry, we're in the Lord's hands
He's gonna walk beside us, the time is coming' near
He's gonna wash away all our misery and our fear

[Verse 2]
I got a feeling' in my body
This will be our lucky day
We'll be releasing all our sorrow
Leave it layin' along the way

When Daniel faced the lion there wasn't any doubt
You got to be like Daniel and the Lord will help us out

[Verse 2 repeat]

[Pre-Chorus]
Won't you lift your eyes up children
Lift them to the sky
Heaven stands before you, gates are open wide
Shelter for the weary, comfort for the weak
We'll leave the devil's evil, sweatin' on the street

[Chorus]
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta
I got a feeling in my body
This will be our lucky day
We'll be releasing all our sorrow
Leave it layin' along the way

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Brigde]
I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know right now
I wanna know
Yeah. yeah, I got a feel
I got a feeling'
I got a feeling

[Verse 4]
I got a feeling' in my body
This will be our lucky day
We'll be releasing all our sorrow
Leave it layin' along the way

Elvis Presley

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
