Steal Away: The African American Concert Spiritual
Poor man Lazrus (arr. J. Hairston for mixed chorus)
Poor man Lazrus, sick and disabled
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
He had to eat crumbs
From the rich man's table
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
Rich man Divies, he lived so well
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
And when he died he went straight to hell
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I love to shout, I love to sing
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I love to praise thy heavenly king
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue (dip your finger in the water)
Dip your finger in the water (come and cool my tongue)
Come and cool my tongue ('cause I'm tormented in the flame)
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
He had to eat crumbs
From the rich man's table
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
Rich man Divies, he lived so well
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
And when he died he went straight to hell
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I love to shout, I love to sing
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I love to praise thy heavenly king
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue (dip your finger in the water)
Dip your finger in the water (come and cool my tongue)
Come and cool my tongue ('cause I'm tormented in the flame)
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
Dip your finger in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
