Contents
[cd. 1] I know his blood can make me whole
Jesus make up my dying bed
It's nobody's fault but mine
Mother's children have a hard time
Dark was the night-cold was the ground
If I had my way I'd tear the building down
I'm gonna run to the city of refuge
Jesus is coming soon
Lord I can't just keep from crying
Keep your lamp trimmed and burning
Let your light shine on me
God don't never change
Bye and bye I'm goin' to see the King
Sweeter as the years roll by
[cd. 2] You'll need somebody on your bond
When the war was on
Praise God I'm satisfied
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
Take your stand
God moves on the water
Can't nobody hide from God
If it had not been for Jesus
Go to me with that land
The rain don't fall on me
Trouble will soon be over
The soul of a man
Everbody ought to treat a stranger right
Church, I'm fully saved to-day
John the revelator
Your're gonna need somebody on your bond.
