| I said a prayer
|
| Jesus Christ sat a-weeping
|
| But I meant not to pine
|
| That time receiver now was in my ear
|
| Well that don’t soothe my life
|
| That don’t soothe my eye
|
| Singing Aye, aye, aye
|
| Bring him on up easy
|
| I can’t bring him on up
|
| Aye, aye, aye
|
| No, I can’t bring him on up easy
|
| Jesus come make up my dying bed
|
| They was all crying and weeping
|
| And I’m saying
|
| That He ain’t Lord
|
| Then they on Friday evening
|
| Yeah found him hanging on a cross
|
| There he was hanging there on a cross
|
| Then on a Friday evening
|
| Hear the Lord weep and moan
|
| Saying his disciples
|
| Carry my body home
|
| Carry my body home
|
| He sang that Lord, Lord, Lord and
|
| I done gone up; |
| I have…
|
| Brang him home, brang him home
|
| I was laying there
|
| I was dead and buried
|
| Somebody said that I was lost
|
| Then when I got down, when I got down in joy
|
| Had to find my man and I did cross
|
| Had to find my man now I did cross
|
| Had to find my man, I did cross
|
| We sang, Aye, aye, aye
|
| Well I done gone over and I…
|
| Well I done gone
|
| Aye, aye, aye
|
| I know that I done gone
|
| He gonna make up my dying bed
|
| Jesus make up my dying bed
|
| Jesus make up my dying, my dying bed |
