Wade in the Water

Wade in the water

Come on and wade in the water, children

Wade in the water

My Lord, my God's gonna trouble the water

Come on and wade in the water

Come on and wade in the water, children

Wade in the water

My God's gonna trouble the water

If you hear, tell of me dyin'

I don't want nobody to cry (Oh yeah)

All I want you to do for me

And that's to close my dyin' eyes

Well, come on and wade in the water

Wade in the water, all the children

Wade in the water

My Lord, my God's gonna trouble the water

Well, in my dying hour (Oh Lord)

I don't want nobody to moan (Oh yeah)

All I want you to do for me

And that's to give that bell a tone

Well, come on and wade in the water

Wade in the water, well, all the children

Wade in the water

My God's gonna trouble the water

When I get in glory

Well, I'm gonna shake my mother's hand (Oh yes)

I'm gonna tell her all about my troubles

While I'm travelin' though this land

Well, come on and wade in the water

Wade in the water, children

Wade in the water

My God's gonna trouble the water

Come on and wade in the water

Wade in the water, children

Wade in the water

My Lord, my God's gonna trouble the water
