Refrain: Steal away, steal away, steal away to Jesus! Steal away, steal away home; I ain’t got long to stay here.
1. My Lord, he calls me; he calls me by the thunder. The trumpet sounds within my soul; I ain’t got long to stay here. [Refrain]
2. Green trees are bending; poor sinners stand a trembling, The trumpet sounds within my soul; I ain’t got long to stay here. [Refrain]
3. My Lord, he calls me; he calls me by the lightning. The trumpet sounds within my soul; I ain’t got long to stay here. [Refrain]
