The Blind Boys Of Alabama - The Sermon

I Cried - Take 1

I cried, Lord, I cried all night long
Lord, I cried all night long
Lord, I'm a sinner
Say if you'd ever, ever been better
Lord, help me sing my song
Oh, have mercy, Jesus

Lord, I ain't been a-hittin' with
Oh, but I've been told
I've been told
Ain't been to heaven, boy
Lord, but I've been told
Somebody ought to hear me, Jesus
Lord, I'm wasted now

Said you seem so made of blood
Lord, I believe to get some gold
Lord, I'm wasted now
Said if you never lost your mother
You don't know how I feel
You better cherish your mother
And Lord, who's gonna let her live?

Lord, I cry
Lord, have mercy now, have mercy, Jesus
Lord, if you've ever, ever been burdened
Oh, help me sing my song
