Keep me from sinking Down.
Oh, Lord, Oh my Lord!
Oh, my good Lord!
Keep me from sinking down.
Oh, my good Lord!
Keep me from sinking down.
[1]
I tell you what I mean to do;Keep me from sinking down:
I mean to go to heaven too;
Keep me from sinking down.
2
I look up yonder, and what do I see;Keep me from sinking down:
I see the angels beckoning to me;
Keep me from sinking down.
Oh, Lord, etc.
3
When I was a mourner just like you;Keep me from sinking down:
I mourned and mourned till I got through;
Keep me from sinking down.
Oh, Lord, etc.
4
I bless the Lord I'm gwine to die;Keep me from sinking down:
I'm gwine to judgment by-and-by;
Keep me from sinking down.
Oh, Lord, etc.
