Hear The Hills

Lyrics: Luther Dickinson/North Mississippi Allstars
Music: Luther Dickinson/North Mississippi Allstars

Played by Luther Dickinson with Phil Lesh & Friends in April 2013.

The sun is sinking low into the Mississippi
The shadow of death, dark as a valley
I have run as far as I can
My days are done, oh come angel band

I can hear the hills calling out my name
Going up to heavin for to stake my claim
Call me by thunder, call me by whispering pine
I have seen proof of God and I don�t mind dying

I have the keys to the kingdom
Granted passage to the road paved with gold
I have the keys to the kingdom
I have forefathers singing songs of old

Going up the mountain deep into the cave
Ride the mighty elephant into the oceans wave
See that fork of lightning jump from cloud to cloud
Hear that rolling thunder, call my name out loud

I can hear the hills calling out my name
Going up to heavin for to stake my claim
Call me by thunder, call me by whispering pine
I have seen proof of God and I don�t mind dying

I have the keys to the kingdom
Granted passage to the road paved with gold
I have the keys to the kingdom
I have forefathers telling tales of old

Rest easy partner, your troubles shall now cease
Rest easy partner, may you rest in peace
Rest in peace

I can hear the hills calling out my name
Going up to heavin for to stake my claim
Call me by thunder, call me by whispering pine
I have seen proof of God and I don�t mind dying
I have seen proof of God and I don�t mind dying
I have seen proof of God and I don�t mind dying
