A Selected Choir

Bryant, Williams, Ruffin, Kendricks, Mcgilberry, Davis and Harris.

All are apart of the legacy of Temptation's forever.

And now they are rockin' in heaven.

 

One with a spin.

One with a grin.

One with a smile surrounded by a heavenly choir.

 

The sun got brighter.

As the cloudy day faded away.

With the Saints of the Sanctuary marching to the gates.

 

One with spec.

One with a double breasted suit to the microphone.

With the choir of harmonizers singing along.

 

And they get inducted into the halls of Rock and Roll heaven.

 

The audience is supplied with starts.

We see Curtis Mayfield's will his guitar.

And Elvis ready to join in.

 

In Rock and Roll heaven, they all are musical friends.

 

Even Johnny Taylor and Sam Cooke and Otis Redding is ready to sing.

 

And Bobby Hatfield's ready to go upon a solo.

 

Oh, they must be rockin' behind close doors.

Ready to greet a Staple's singer through the holy doors.

 

God welcome only a select few.

While we upon earth debate about who?

In truth, only He knows, who He will bring?

 

And they all don't have to see.

 

If you've been touched by a song they sung.

Then you're aware of the bells that's been rung.

God, has placed his heart upon everyone.

Especially, his selected choir.
