This old sinful body, sometimes it makes me sigh and
Groan.
This old earthly body, sometimes it makes me weep and
Moan.
Give me the low-down, shakin' chill
And I found out what it means to be alone.
Yeah, I was on a
Good-healthy-draft-fightin'-lovin'-peace-tokin'-LSD-world-philosophy-bold-cold-hot-guitar-pickin'-psychedelic-wizard-blind-mystic-one-way
Ticket to everlasting death. The devil was always
Offering me the best but giving me the worst. He
Offered me freedom and then tied my hands behind my
Back. When torment set in he laughed at me so I tried
Scientology, yoga, self-realization, meditating, good
Worldly things, but I just kept sinking lower. I tried
Everything but Jesus. There is a way which seems right
Unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
Early one morning I was just as scared as I could be.
Early in the morning I was just as scared as I could
Be
I asked God to forgive me and Jesus to help me please
Jesus said, "If a man keep My saying, he shall never
See death."
When I gave my heart to Jesus
I could feel the earth shaking all under my feet
When I gave my heart to Jesus
I could feel the earth shaking all up under my feet
Wasn't that a glorious victory as I knelt down at the
Mercy seat.
