Lyrics
In my time of dying,
Don't want nobody to moan.
All I want for you to do
Is take my body home...
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Welll, well, well,
Jesus gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Ain't no grave gonna keep me,
Keep me in the ground,
I'm comin' up to heaven Lord,
Meet me half-way down.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Welll, well, well,
Jesus gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Meet me Jesus, meet me,
Meet me in the middle of the air
And should these old wings fail me Lord,
Meet me with another pair.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Welll, well, well,
Jesus gonna make up my dyin' bed.
In my time of dying,
Don't want nobody to cry.
All I want for you to do
Is take me home to die.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Welll, well, well,
Jesus gonna make up my dyin' bed.
