about

The imagined early years of the Reverend Colonel Hartman Bunn who really was a snake-handling preacher from Durham, North Carolina.

lyrics

I was a young man, with a belly full of sin
I was not ready to let my savior in
Left my home in Caroline
With the devil right behind
Never thought about the glory of the lord

In Johnson City, my soul was finally spent
I felt the call of a white revival tent
When the preacher spoke in tongues
I heard what I could become
If I gave my glory to the lord

Oh the way I give glory to the lord
Oh the way I give glory to the lord
You can hear the people shout
When I drive the devil out
That’s the way I give glory to the lord
That’s the way I give glory to the lord

The gospel says don’t fear a deadly thing
Give yourself over to the king of kings
I don’t fear the serpent’s bite
Cause I know my faith is right
And that’s that the way I give glory to the lord

Oh the way I give glory to the lord
Oh the way I give glory to the lord
You can hear the people shout
When I drive the devil out
That’s the way I give glory to the lord
That’s the way I give glory to the lord

I left the hollers of eastern Tennessee
To bring the good news to my kin in Hickory
I cured them of their pain
With blessed Jesus’s name
That’s that the way I give glory to the lord

Oh the way I give glory to the lord
Oh the way I give glory to the lord
You can hear the people shout
When I drive the devil out
That’s the way I give glory to the lord
That’s the way I give glory to the lord
