Keep Your Hand on The Plow Lyrics

Hold on
Hold on
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on .

Hold on
Hold on
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on .

Heard the voice of Jesus say
Come unto me , I am the way.
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on.
When my way gets dark as night,
I know the lord will be my light,
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on.

Hold on
Hold on
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on .

You can talk about me much as you please
the more you talk, gonna stay on my knees.
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on.

When I get to heaven, gonna sing and shout
Be nobody there to put me out.
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on.
I know my robe's gonna fit me well,
I tried it on at the gates of Hell.
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on.

Hold on
Hold on
Keep your hand on the plow, hold on .

Hi, can anybody tell/explain me the right meaning of the second part ("You can talk about me ...") of this beautiful song? I would be very grateful. I am not a native english speaker, so sometimes it is difficult for me to understand half hidden / metaphoric meanig of songs.Thank you very much.

"The more you talk, I'm going to stay on my knees" It means that the more and more unbelievers taunt you as a believer, the more strength you get and the more you'll pray for their souls.
