The Books of American Negro Spirituals
by J. W. Johnson, J. R. Johnson
Steal
away, steal away, steal away to Jesus
Steal away, steal away home
I ain't got long to stay here
My
Lord, He calls me
He calls me by the thunder
The trumpet sounds within-a my soul
I ain't got long to stay here
Green
trees are bending
Po' sinner stand a-trembling
The trumpet sounds within-a my soul
I ain't got long to stay here
