| lyric | Before I'd be a slave,
I’d be buried in my grave,
And go home to my Lord and be saved.
1. Oh, what mourning, Oh, what mourning,
Oh, what mourning over me!
2. Oh, what preaching, Oh, what preaching,
Oh, what preaching over me!
3. Oh, what singing, Oh, what singing,
Oh, what singing over me!
4. Oh, what sighing, Oh, what sighing,
Oh, what sighing over me!
5. Oh, what shouting, Oh, what shouting,
Oh, what shouting over me! |
