Steal Away (to Jesus)


Traditional Black American spiritual
Rise Up Singing chapter: Spirituals, p.212

D - - - / - - A D / - - G A(fermata) / D - A D
Steal away, steal away / Steal away to Jesus
Steal away, steal away home / I ain't got long to stay here

G - D - / - - - - / - - G A / D - A D
My Lord He calls me / He calls me by the thunder
The trumpet sounds within-a my soul / I ain't got long to stay here

Green trees are bending / Poor sinner stands a-trembling
The trumpet sounds within-a my soul / I ain't got long to stay here

My Lord He calls me / He calls me by the lightning
The trumpet sounds within-a my soul / I ain't got long to stay here

Send me a message if the "A(fermata)" confused you.
