I Bowed on My Knees and Cried "Holy"

Nettie Dudley Washington • English

Primary Scripture: Philippians 2:10-11

Verse 1

I dreamed of a city called glory, so bright and so fair, When I entered the gates I cried holy, the angels all met me there. They carried me from mansion to mansion, Oh, the sights I saw. Then I said I want to see Jesus, The One who died for me. I bowed on my knees and cried holy, holy, holy, I clapped my hands and sang glory, glory to the Son of God.

Verse 2

Then as I entered the gates of that city, my loved ones all knew me well, They took me down the streets of heaven, on the scenes too many to tell. I saw Abraham, Jacob and Isaac; talked with Mark and Timothy. But I said I want to see Jesus, The One who died for me. I bowed on my knees and cried holy, holy, holy, I clapped my hands and sang glory, glory to the Son of God.
