Lyrics Levon Helm – No Depression In Heaven

Out here the hearts of men are failing
For these are latter days we know
The great depression now is spreading
God’s words declared it would be so

I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
My home’s in heaven, I’m going there

Instrumental break

In that bright land there’ll be no hunger
No orphan children crying for bread
No weeping widows toil and struggle
No shrouds, no coffins, and no dead

I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
My home’s in heaven, I’m going there

Instrumental break

This dark hour of midnight nearing
Tribulation time will come
The storm will hurl a midnight fierce
And sweep lost millions to their doom

I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
