Let my People Go
Cm
The devil has designed my death
G Cm
And is waiting to be sure
Plenty of his black sheep died
Before he finds a cure
[chorus]
Cm F
Oh Lord Jesus
Cm F
Do you think I served my time?
Cm
The eight legs of the devil now
G Cm
Are crawling up my spine
The firm hand
Of the devil now
Is rocking me to sleep
I force my blind eyes open Lord
But I'm sinking in the deep
Chorus
I go to sleep each evening now
Dreaming of the grave
I see the friends I used to know
Crawling up my leg
[final chorus]
Oh Lord Jesus
Here's the news from the fires below
The eight legs of the devil will not
Let my people go
