Zion still Sings ‎#84

84. Give Me Jesus

1 I heard my mother say,
I heard my mother say,
I heard my mother say,
"Give me Jesus."

Refrain:
Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus,
you may have all this world,
give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus,
you may have all this world,
give me Jesus.

2 Dark midnight was my cry,
dark midnight was my cry,
dark midnight was my cry,
give me Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Oh, when I come to die,
oh, when I come to die,
oh, when I come to die,
give me Jesus. [Refrain]
