99. My Good Lord Done Been Here

Chorus:
My good Lord done been here,
Blessed my soul, and gone away,
My good Lord done been here,
blessed my soul, and gone.

1 I know I've been converted,
But I aint goin-t make no alarm,
My soul is anchored in my Jesus,
And the Devil can't do me no harm. [Chorus]

2 I would not be a sinner,
I'll tell you the reason why,
I'm afraid my Lord will call me,
And I wouldn't be ready to die. [Chorus]

3 I would not be a gambler,
I'll tell you the reason why,
I'm afraid my Lord will call me,
And I wouldn't be ready to die. [Chorus]

4 I would not be a liar,
I'll tell you the reason why,
I'm afraid my Lord will call me,
And I wouldn't be ready to die. [Chorus]
