Why don't you, rock a my soul
In the bosom of Abraham
A rock-a-my soul
In the bosom of Abraham
A rock-a-my soul
In the bosom of Abraham
Oh, rock-a-my soul

I would not be a sinner
I'll tell you the reason why
I'm afraid my Lord might call me
And i wouldn't be ready to die

I would not be a liar
I'll tell you the reason why
I'm afraid my Lord might call me
And i wouldn't be ready to die

I would not be a back-biter
I'll tell you the reason why
I'm afraid my Lord might call me
And i wouldn't be ready to die
