In The Evening

In my time of dying,
Want nobody to moan.
All I want for you to do,
Is take my body home.

Well well well so I can die easy.
Well well well so I can die easy.

Jesus got to make you shiver.
Jesus gonna make you.
Jesus gonna make you my dying bed.

Meet me Jesus meet me,
Meet me in the middle of the air.
If my wings should fail me lord,
Please meet me with another pair.

Well well well so I can die easy.
Well well well so I can die easy.

Jesus gonna make you somebody.
Jesus gonna make you.
Jesus gonna make you my dying bed.

Oh Saint Peter,
I can make amends,
Won't you let me in.
I never did no wrong,
I never did no wrong.

Oh Gabriel,
Let me blow your horn,
Let me blow your horn.
I never did no wrong,
Did no wrong.
I only can be young once.
I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong,
No not once.

Oh I did somebody so good,
Somebody some good.
Oh did somebody some good,
I must have did somebody some good,
Oh I believe I did.
I seen the smiling faces.
I know I must have left some traces.

And I see them in the streets.
And I see them in the theater.
And I even felt my feet.
And I never tried to be real.
Oh lord deliver me,
All the wrongs I've done.
Oh you can deliver me lord,
I only wanted to have some fun.

Oh keep the angels marching,
Keep them marching,
Keep them marching,
Oh my Jesus...

That's got to be my Jesus.
It's got to be my Jesus.
Oh take me home.
Come on, come on.
I can hear the angels singing,
Here they come,
Bye bye.
Oh feels pretty good up here.
I'll touch Jesus.
I seen him,
Come on.
Oh don't you make it my dying dying dying.
