Changing Ground

Lyrics

I have stood on the changing ground
 I have walked like a man in chains
 I tried hard to do my best
 But I could not make my way
 Oh, trouble was on my tail
 And he dogged me like a hound
 'Til I moved one step onto glory
 And off of that changing ground
 
 There was a rumbling at my feet
 There was a howling in the air
 Then when the tempest broke
 I made a mighty prayer
 But no one was at my side
 And no hiding place I found
 'Til I moved one step onto glory
 And off of that changing ground
 And when I took his hand, I was rearranged
 I cried out, "My God, I'm changed"
 Tell me Lord, what can I do?
 He said, "Tell your sister and your brother too"
 And I testify his truth
 I have stood on the changing ground
 I have walked like a man in chains
 I tried hard to do my best
 I could not make my way
 Because trouble was on my tail
 And he dogged me like a hound
 'Til I moved one step onto glory
 And off of that changing ground
 Changing ground
