Text: | Didn’t My Lord Deliver Daniel |
Tune: | [He deliver'd Daniel from the lion's den] |
Harmonizer: | Carl Haywood, b. 1949 |
Refrain:
Didn’t my Lord deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel?
Didn’t my Lord deliver Daniel,
And why not a every man?
1 He deliver’d Daniel from the lion’s den,
And Jonah from the belly of the whale,
And the Hebrew children from the fi’ry furnace,
And why not every man? [Refrain]
2 The wind blows east, and the wind blows west;
It blows like the judgment day.
And ev’ry poor soul that ever did pray
Will be glad to pray that day. [Refrain]
3 He set my foot on the gospel ship,
And the ship it begin to sail.
It landed me over on Canaan’s shore,
And I’ll never come back anymore. [Refrain]
4 The moon run down in a purple stream;
The sun forbear to shine.
And every star did disappear.
King Jesus shall be mine. [Refrain]
5 Oh, Daniel cast in the lion’s den,
He pray both night and day.
The angel came from Galilee
And took that lion away! [Refrain]
