Oh my Lord, Please don’t forsake me

This is your child, I’m tired and sore

Oh my Lord, can you hear me?

I need your love; my soul is poor

I can hear, the angels singing

I can see those pearly gates

Oh my Lord, can you hear me?

I need a place where I can rest

Oh my Lord, I can’t remember

When I first said, “Come in my life,”

I can hear those lonesome midnight sighs in your sleep

I can hear the freight train’s whistle crying’s tellin’ me

It’s telling me, oh darlin’ can’t you see

Here comes that same old line

Here comes goodbye

Here Comes Goodbye, tonight

Put a hold on all your lies,

It’s just not right

It comes as no surprise, this time

The big moon is risin’ so bright in the sky

But it won’t shine brighter than the stars in your eyes

It rises above me so bright and so blue

And I won’t see anyone, as lovely as you

Take me into the night,

Past these lonely dreams in my heart

I love you, more than I could show you

More than I could know, in my heart

So lay down beside me and hold me tonight

(Paul Craft)

When time was young we walked the roads together
When love was sweet I meant the world to you
Now comes the sun we'll say goodbye forever
And teardrops will kiss the morning dew

Take me and make me your lover one more time
Close in your arms as before
'Til o'er your shoulder the early morning shines
Then I'll leave you and grieve you no more

I got to run to keep in hidin'
And I'm bound to go on ridin'
I've got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me Lord
I aint' gonna let 'em catch the
Midnight Rider

I don't own the clothes I'm wearin'
Some old bed I'll soon be sharin'
I got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me Lord
I aint' gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Rider

Out on the hills of glory land
So happy and free at God's right hand
They tell of a place of marvelous grace
On Heaven's bright shore

Pilgrims on earth some day will go
To live in that home for evermore
Trusting in Him who died for sin
And rose from the grave

On Heaven's bright shore (on Heavens's bright shore)
There's gonna be no more dyin (over there)

I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
Do you still love me and will you remain
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
Please don't let me love you in vain

I used to think your love would always save me
And that you'd always stay right by my side
But I can see a change coming over you
And the tears I cried just can't hide no

I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me

As I went down for to take a little walk
I came upon that Wild Bill Jones
He was a-walkin' and a-talkin' by my true lover's side
And I bid him to leave her alone

He said, "My age is twenty-one,
Too old to be controlled."
I pulled my revolver from my side
And I destroyed that poor boys soul

He reeled and he staggered then he fell to the ground
And then he gave one giant moan

Two highways lay before me, which one will I choose
Down one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would lose
There is no one that I can trust,
I must decide alone
My decision is an awful one, which road will take me home

In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone
Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long
