One day as I was walkin’ along I heard the angels singing I heard a voice and I saw no one I heard the angels singing What you reckon he said to me I heard the angels singing Said my sins are forgiven and my soul set free I heard the angels singing
Well, the Holy Ghost on fire fell on me You ought to have been there when he fell on me
Then I got in the spirit and I began to shout People come a running, miles around, people wondering what it was all about
Went down in the valley one day just to pray Met old Satan down on my way
What you reckon that old rascal said to me He said I was too old to die and too young to pray
I went on down didn’t pay no mind what he said Made Satan out a liar and I stayed all day
Went down in the valley, fell down on my knees I said, Lord help me if you please
One morning soon Just awhile before day One morning soon Just awhile before day One morning soon Just awhile before day I heard the angels singing I heard the angels singing
Down by my bedside I was down on my knees Down by my bedside I was down on my knees Down by my bedside I was down on my knees I heard the angels singing I heard the angels singing
