My Father Said, He's Ready

Cat. #1076 (MFH #268) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on May 12, 1970

VERSE 1
My Father said, he's ready
An' then he wants to go
To leave this world of sorrow
An' trouble below
Lord, I want more religion
Lord, I want more religion
Lord, I want more religion
To help me unto Thee

VERSE 2
Religion makes me hapy
An', then I want t' go
T' leave this world of sorrow
An' trouble below
Lord, I want more religion
Lord, I want more religion
Lord, I want more religion
Help me unto Thee
