Give Me Just a Little More Time (Acme Version) Albert Brumley (ca. 1958) (I’ll Fly Away, Turn Your Radio On, etc.) Acme lyrics, R W Pollay (Dec 2017) Note: Composer & melody from shape note tradition. © Give me just a little more time Oh, give me just a little more time. So many wounded souls need a helping hand or some sort of hopeful sign. There’s a lot of good deeds that are left to do Including the random kind. (Don’t you know) I'll be ready when you call me, Lord BUT give me just a little more time. I'm busy every day as I wander on my way Thru this world full of hate and (too much) fear. And there is not a doubt that my time is running out My sunset is drawing (ever) near. Still, I need a little time to spread a little love Before I leave this world behind. I'll be ready when you call me, Lord BUT give me just a little more time © I need a little time to help my fellow man, those who struggle along life's way. I need a little time to do those little things that brighten a hum-drum (or dreary) day. Every moment that I have to tarry here on earth I’ll try to make my light to shine. I'll be ready when you call me, Lord BUT give me just a little more time © |
