I. Steal away to Jesus
Refrain:
Steal away, steal away,
steal away to Jesus!
Steal away, steal away home;
I ain't got long to stay here.
1. My Lord calls me;
He calls me by the thunder.
The trumpet sounds within my soul;
I ain't got long to stay here. [Refrain]
2. My Lord calls me;
he calls me by the lightning.
The trumpet sounds within my soul;
I ain't got long to stay here. [Refrain]
II. Deep river
R.:
Deep river,
my soul is over Jordan.
Deep river, Lord,
I want to cross over into campground.
O don't you want to go
to the heav'nly feast;
that Promised Land,
where all is peace?
I'll go into Heaven and take my seat
and cast my crown at Jesus' feet.
R.
III. Lord I want to be a Christian
Lord, I want to be a Christian in my heart.
Lord, I want to be more loving in my heart.
Lord, I want to be more giving in my heart.
Lord, I want to be like Jesus in my heart.
