When I wake up to sleep no more



We all need some blue-grassy gospel now & then... 



When I Wake To Sleep No More
Recorded by Ralph Stanley
Written by Marion Easterling

G
What a glad thought some wonderful morning 
              
Just to hear Gabriel's trumpet sound 
 
When I wake up when I wake up 
            D7
To sleep no more (to sleep no more) 

       G
Rising to meet our blessed redeemer 
 
With a glad shout I'll leave the ground 
 
When I wake up (when I wake up) 
   D7       G        C        G
To sleep no more (to sleep no more) 


When I wake up some glad morning 
 
To sleep no more jewels adorning 
 
How happy I'll be over in glory 
                 D7
On the beautiful shore telling the story 

     G
With the redeemed of all the ages 
 
Praising the one who I adore 
 
When I wake up (when I wake up) 
   D7       G        C        G
To sleep no more (to sleep no more)  


Glory to God I'll have a new body 

Changed in a twinkling of an eye 

When I wake up (when I wake up) 
            D7
To sleep no more (to sleep no more)

 
Leaving behind all troubles and trials 

Bound for the city up on high 

When I wake up (when I wake up)
   D7       G        C        G
To sleep no more (to sleep no more) 

Repeat #3 & 4
