211. My Precious Lord

1 My precious Lord has won my heart,
And never from Him will I part;
My precious Lord has won my heart,
And never from Him will I part,
I don’t wanna grieve my Lord anymore.

Chorus:
I don’t wanna grieve my Lord anymore,
I don’t wanna grieve my Lord anymore,
I don’t wanna grieve my Lord anymore.

2 Just see that sun, see how he run,
Don’t let him catch you with your work undone. [Chorus]

3 You can talk about me just all you please,
I’ll talk about you down on my knees. [Chorus]

4 If you want to see the devil run
Just shoot him in the back with the gospel gun. [Chorus]

5 If you want to get to heaven like anybody else,
Accept the Savior for yourself. [Chorus]
