Lyrics

Well early in the morning About the break of day I ask the Lord "Help me find the way" Help me find the way (help me find the way) To the promised land (to the promised land) This lonely body (this lonely body) Needs a helping hand (needs a helping hand) I ask the Lord (I ask the Lord) to help me, please find the way When the new day's a-dawning (day's a-dawning) I bow my head in prayer (I bow my head in prayer) I pray thee, Lord, won't you lead me there? Won't you guide me safely? (Guide me) To the golden stair (golden stair) Won't you let this body (let this) your burden share? (Body) I pray thee, Lord, won't you lead me, please? Lead me there When the judgment comes To find the world in chain When the trumpet blows Won't you call my name? (Won't you call my name?) When the thunder rolls, and the Heavens ring When the sun turns black, never shine again (never shine again) When the trumpet blows, won't you call me, please? Call my name
