I heard Bob Dylan sing this. I was struck by the lyrics and noticed this man's name as the songwriter. Great song. Dylan was wise to cover it.💜

Biblically incorrect but has it's moments. In this age you do not sleep in the grave nor in in any dispensation before. Now you are either in heavenly places or in hell. Trust in the blood.
