LYRICS

Disc 1, #3 Steal Away to Jesus (in the Midnight Hour)


I’m gwon steal away
In the midnight hour.
Steal, steal away to Jesus.

Lord do you hear me?


Do you hear me when I make my humble cry?
I’m goan steal away
Oh lord, in the midnight hour.
Steal away to Jesus.
Lord my body is wracked with pain.
Well, when the moon,
when the moon rises high in the sky.
I’ll be ready, I’ll be ready
To steal away.
You may capture, you may capture my body
But my soul, my soul will always be free.

I’m gwon steal away


When you see the pigeons flyin in that northern sky
Lord, Lord I’m ready to steal away
Do you hear me, oh great father when I make my humble cry.
Steal away, steal away to Jesus.

Oh Lord, oh Lord, in the midnight hour.


Steal away.
Oh Lord, I’m ready.
I’m ready to steal away.
Maybe soon in the morning.
I’m ready to steal away.
Maybe in the wee wee hours .
I’m ready to steal away.

12 o’clock in the afternoon


your child is ready to steal away.
Oh Lord steal away to Jesus
In the midnight hour, I’m ready

Sometimes my tongue gets stuck up in the roof of my mouth


When I’m praying to my lord
But I’m ready,
Ready to steal away.

Oh Lord,
Steal away.
Steal away
Steal away to Jesus.

“Wadin’ in the water
Wadin’ the water children
Wadin’ in the water
Wadin’ in the water, just like John
You know that god’s gonna trouble the water

Well I moved on into the water


The water was a little bit cold
It chilled my natural body
But it didn’t disturb my soul.

Wadin’ in the water


Wadin’ in the water children
Wadin’ in the water
Wadin’ in the water just like John
You know that Gods’s gonna trouble the water

If you get there before I do

Tell my mother I’m comin’ too
God’s gonna trouble the water

I’m wadin’ in the water

You know that Gods’s gonna trouble the water

I know my time for freedom


Is way up ahead of me.
But I keep on moving on
I want my savior to always see that I’m a

Wadin’ in the water


Wadin’ in the water children
Wadin’ in the water
Wadin’ in the water just like John
You know that Gods’s gonna trouble the water
Well who’s the children dressed in red

Must be the children that Moses lead.
God’s gonna trouble the water.

Wadin’ in the water


Wadin’ in the water children
Wadin’ in the water
Wadin’ in the water just like John
You know now God’s gonna trouble the water

INTRO
Swing low sweet chariot, coming fore to carry me home
Swing low sweet chariot, coming fore to carry me home
Oh Swing down low
Swing down chariot come and let me ride
Swing down chariot come and let me ride
Help me Lord, help me Lord
I got a home on the other side

I looked over Jordan, and what did I see?


Comin’ fore to carry me home.
A band of angels comin’ after me
Comin’ fore to carry me home.

If you get to heaven before I do


Comin’ fore to carry me home.
Tell all my friends I’m comin’ too
Comin’ fore to carry me home.

I’m sometimes up and sometimes down


Comin’ fore to carry me home.
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Comin’ fore to carry me home.
