Wade in the Water Songtext
von The Blind Boys of Alabama

Wade in the water
Come on and wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
My Lord, my God′s gonna trouble the water

Come on and wade in the water
Come on and wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
My God's gonna trouble the water

If you hear tell o′ me dyin'
I don't want nobody to cry (oh yeah)
All I want you to do for me
And that′s to close my dyin′ eyes

Well, come on and wade in the water
Oh, wade in the water, all the children
Wade in the water
My Lord, my God's gonna trouble the water


Well, in my dying hours (oh, Lord)
I don′t want nobody to moan (oh yeah)
All I want you to do for me
And that's to give that bell a tone

Well, come on and wade in the water
Yeah, wade in the water, all the children
Wade in the water
My God′s gonna trouble the water

When I get in glory
Well, I'm gonna shake my mother′s hand (oh yes)
I'm gonna tell her all about my troubles
While I'm traveling through this land

Well, come on and wade in the water
Oh, wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
My God′s gonna trouble the water

Come on and wade in the water
Oh yeah, wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
My Lord, my God′s gonna trouble the water
