JESUS GONNA MAKE UP MY DYING BED IIB

1.
Saul was on his way to Damascus
He was a wicked man
Just before he reached the city
They were leading him by the hand.
Cho. 1
Oh, Lord have mercy (3 times)
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
2.
The power of God fell upon old Saul
Just lac on you and I
Just before he reached the city
I heard him begin to cry.
Cho. 2
Oh I'm anchored in Jesus (3 times)
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
3.
In my hour of dying
I don't want no body to cry
All I want you to do for me
Is to close my dying eye.
Cho. 3
Then I'll be sleeping in Jesus (3 times)
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
4.
In the hour of dying
I don't want nobody to moan
All I want you to do for me
Is give that bell a tone.
Cho. 4
Then I'll be dying easy (twice)
Oh don't you be uneasy
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
5.
In the hour of dying
Somebody will say I'm lost
Just come on down to the river
And Jesus will tell you I crossed.
Cho. 5
Then I'll be crossing over (3 times)
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
6.
I'm goin' down to the river
I'm goin' jes' lac er man
An buckle my sword from roun' my side
And stick it in the golden sand.
Cho. 6
Then I'll be gone to glory (twice)
Oh don't you be uneasy
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
