[Intro]
Oh yeah, oh Lord
Yeah
Glory, glory
Glory, glory
Walkin' in glory

[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning
(Yeah)
Looked all around
(All around)
Couldn't find my baby
She was no where to be found
(Don't say that)
I think the Lord, He took her
(Took your baby)
In the middle of the night
Took her up to heaven
But people, that's alright
(And that's alright)

[Chorus]
'Cause she walkin' in glory
Her soul is saved
She walkin' with the Lord
Whose Son He gave
To save us all from damnation
This world is fading fast
It's all in Revelation
The truth has come to past

[Verse 2]
You got to say His name, y'all
Pray up on the hill
And ask Him for forgiveness
The Lord, He surely will
My baby was a sinner
She knew the meaning of love
(Oh oh)
Now she walkin', she walkin'
With that Man up above, ow

[Chorus]
Walkin' in glory
Her soul is saved
She walkin' with the Lord
Whose Son He gave
To save us all from damnation
This world is fading fast
It's all in Revelation
The truth has come to past
You got to say His name
(Hey now)
Jesus, Jesus
Glory, glory, glory, glory
Woo, yeah

[Chorus]
Walkin' in glory
Her soul is saved
Walkin' with the Lord
Whose Son He gave
To save us all from damnation
Who gave His only, His only
(This world is fading fast)
Listen to me one time!
(Look out, y'all)

[Breakdown]
Heaven be with you
If you don't know His name
No one could match His glory
No one could match His fame
Help me, Lord!
Help me, Lord
Don't you let me lose my way
I only wanna tell ur story
And be with you every day
I wanna walk in glory
Walkin' in glory
I think I wanna walk
I wanna walk in glory
I wanna walk
Uh
I think I'm gonna walk in glory
Woo
Yes, yes, oh
Glory, glory
Help me, Lord
Don't let me lose my way
'Cause I want to have your sufferin' every day
Yeah ooh!
Glory
Look at me
I'm freakin'
Whoo
Glory
Today we're gonna walk in glory
Glory
Whoo
Just look at fools try the playground
Wanting cigarettes
Tell me what you gonna say
You say get, get, get it outta my face!
Glory
It's alright, y'all
We're gonna walk
Big G, y'all
Glory, glory, glory, glory
We're gonna walk
Save your soul tonight, say it
Glory (Glory, we're gonna walk)
One day we're gonna walk in glory
Glory
One day we're gonna walk in glory
Heaven be with you, huh
And if you don't know His name
No one could match His glory
No one could match His fame
Help me, Lord!
Don't let me loose my way
I want to be with you every day
Come on, ooh yeah
Be with you every day, Lord
Glory
Yeah

[Outro]
Walkin', walkin', walkin' in glory, yes
One day, one day, one day
(I'm gonna see, you're gonna see)
My soul, my soul will be saved
And I'm gonna walk in glory
Pray up on the hill
I'm gonna ask Him to forgive me
Something tell me He will

Prince

An American singer-songwriter, musician, multi-instrumentalist, and actor that produced 22 RIAA-platinum albums during his 40-year career, Prince may be known for one of many different things – his turn as “The Kid” in the iconic film/album/8 ½ minute ballad “Purple Rain”, being the writer behind the acclaimed anthem “Kiss,” rivaling Michael Jackson at the pinnacle of his career, being the inspiration behind censorship laws, or being the artist addressed as an unpronounceable symbol throughout the 1990s—but while many know of Prince, most don’t fully understand the impact his legacy left on this world.

Going by many aliases throughout his life, Prince Rogers Nelson was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on June 7, 1958 with his father’s (John L. Nelson) stage name as his own given one. Growing up, Prince suffered from serious epileptic seizures at a very young age, but he had wrote his first composition of many by age seven, and outside of his love for basketball, he wanted music to be his purpose in life. His tumultuous childhood, witnessing alcoholism and abuse, caused him to find refuge in neighbor André Cymone’s home in his teens, where the two competed in local band competitions, leading to Prince’s introduction to Morris Day alongside music with his cousin’s band 94 East, leading him to be courted by record labels and ultimately signed to Warner Bros. Records with complete creative control; at 19, his debut album, For You (1978) was released – Prince played all 19 instruments on the record.

Influenced by the likes of Miles Davis, Rick James, and James Brown, Prince desired to form a music dynasty and after the success of his next albums – the platinum-selling Prince (1979), the sexually-charged Dirty Mind (1980), and politically-motivated Controversy (1981) – he negotiated for the ability to form his own label and manage artists of his own. Prince’s trademark sexual/religious rhetoric within pop-and-dance, funk-rock sound gained him a following, but his opening slates for Rick James and The Rolling Stones were both negatively received and facing bankruptcy, the young artist began to reach for mainstream popularity. Cashing on the drug-influenced doomsday mania of the times, 1982’s 1999 easily achieved that mainstream appeal, landing him on MTV, music charts, and radio stations across the world.
