Hymnal: Songs of Zion #106 (1981) First Line: He deliver'd Daniel from the lion's den Refrain First Line: Didn't my Lord deliver Daniel Lyrics: Refrain:
Didn’t my Lord deliver Daniel,
D'liver Daniel, d'liver Daniel?
Didn’t my Lord deliver Daniel,
An’ why not-a every man?
1 He deliver'd Daniel from the lion’s den,
Jonah from the belly of the whale,
And the Hebrew children from the fiery furnace,
And why not every man? [Refrain]
2 The moon run down in a purple stream,
The sun forbear to shine,
And every star disappear,
King Jesus shall be mine. [Refrain]
3 The wind blows east, and the wind blows west,
It blows like the judgment day,
And every poor soul that never did pray,
’ll be glad to pray that day. [Refrain]
4 I 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 any more. [Refrain] Topics: Negro Spirituals and Afro-American Liberation Songs Languages: English Tune Title: [He deliver'd Daniel from the lion's den]
